Hospital Fall Out
April 8, 2009 |
What was once a blurry future for Medicine Hat's regional hospital became a little clearer Tuesday.

Forgotten Corner
April 8, 2009 |
There was little money for hospital expansion, no money for school construction - and no announcement of funding for the event centre project.
