There has been a mass exodus from her locale for many years. This exodus is significant enough that when her football team (the Riders) plays here against our local squad (Stampeders) we often see a SIGNIFICANT contingent of fans wearing "Rider Green". This contingent is a hearty, fun-loving and very loyal group of people. This exodus has apparently lead to a general slowing of the ability to obatin, ans a s such experience, some of the many little things that most of Canada, and perhaps the U.S., takes for granted. That and the 'oft stated "Hey, last one out of Regina turn off the lights, eh?" is beginning to ring more an more true.

I would equate portions of Rissasks home province to that of the BACKWOODS of ARKANSAS, if 'n ya know what I mean

Riss..... ya gotta get a Donair. If your in town call me and I will broaden you horizons a little!

As always, Your friend, Brent
I am the first to admit we have our share of backwoods people here in Saskatchewan.

I have even had homemade moonshine from this guy near our farm when I was in high school. Oh, and once I had Hutterite wine and that stuff is like moonshine. I couldn't feel my hands after one glass.

But hey, the 'mass exodus' has slowed down some..did you know Saskatoon is the third fasted growing city in Canada right now? Right after Calgary and Edmonton. All the Albertans originally from here are sick of super inflated housing prices and selling and making a huge profit and moving back here, where you can actually get a decent house for a decent price still.

Sorry, I digress....WTF IS A DONAIR?? I gotta google.
