You could tell it was going to be one of those mornings on Coffee Row—where history, opinion, and mild exasperation all get poured into the same cup. “Highway 37 didn’t just appear,” Hank said, settling into his chair with the quiet authority of a man who’s driven that stretch in every season Saskatchewan can invent. “It was earned — one petition, one letter, and one stubborn mile at a time.” Mabel had brought in the new write-up about the road’s long fight—the decade-long p
