Shawinigan (shəwĭn`ĭgŭn), city (1991 pop. 19,931), S Que., Canada, on the St. Maurice River. Just north are the falls of the St. Maurice, 150 ft (46 m) high, with a hydroelectric station supplying power for the city's pulp and paper mills and plants that produce aluminum, abrasives, chemicals, cellulose, and textiles. Most of the inhabitants speak French. |

Federally, before we even talk about the missing hundred million, we have Jean Chretien's hotel and golf courses in Shawinigan, Paul Martin's, oops I guess I did do more than $160 million worth of business with the government after all and Brian Mulroney's $300,000 consulting contract, which took place after the PM retired, with Karlheinz Schreiber, the controversial German-Canadian lobbyist. Next, the front page of the Monday, August 4, edition, pitted the parish of Paul Martin's parents in Windsor, ON, where the parish priest, Father Joseph Gosselin, had devoted a homily to the same-sex "marriage" controversy, against the parish priest of Jean Chretien's parish in Shawinigan, Father Alain Gelinas, who had not done so. He was earning $36 a week playing for Shawinigan in the Quebec junior league. |
