Flin Flon and The Pas, as well as the farming settlement west of The Pas (RM of Kelsey).

This seems to the topic of the day for me--northern economic decline. I started this morning with a minor FB argument with the The Pas mayor and another one of his bullshit attempts at boosterism.

I do love the north, it's my home--although I no longer live there--and I think it's beautiful and unique. But Christ this is a backwards place.
