OK - so just how old is this "news" anyway? There is NO reference to Worldcolor, which has been our name for some time now. Also, please note the sentence below, which is taken from the story.

"Quebecor has printed Canada Wide publications for the past 15 years, and the current contract runs until June 2008."

This in itself tells me that the article has to be at least more than a year old.

long memory your so far removed from reality the seniors home has posted you deceased! infact the company wake's up every morning wondering how they could have given up on 25 million dollar's a year of work . tim bousinew (spelling?) figured the work would go to edmonton when they sold the building. his ego not only cost 100 people their jobs. but in the end his own. the sad thing is the 11 million they made on the sale was got before they knew it, so take your head out of someone's upper manager's ass and give the real fact's

Daily Horoscope for December 31

Leo

There's an erratic quality to the day, thanks to the Full Moon in emotional Cancer, combined with a lunar eclipse. Loved ones are likely to behave in ways you hadn't counted on. The only way to cope with this is to be as flexible as possible. Someone might change an arrangement at the eleventh hour so you have to think on your feet, or others may be determined to do their own thing even though it doesn't suit you. Get any arguments out of the way quickly so you can enjoy your New Year's Eve celebrations with a glad heart.
