With the initiative to restore and operate the Monarch Theatre. Affordable family entertainment combined with preservation of a cherished downtown historical building. Way to go Monarch 1911 Society!

Santa Claus Fund provides help to celebrate Christmas. Families breaking bread together is so important at this special time of year. I’m very happy to donate to such a worthy cause.

By all of the volunteers for the Salvation Army Kettle Campaign in the various locations throughout the city, and for the stores that allow the kettles in their stores. Good job, and thank you.

I am so grateful for the hard working Premier Danielle Smith, she works so hard for Albertans. Achievements are pipeline deal, ending federal emissions caps, fostering private health care, increasing Indigenous loan support and pausing fuel taxes.

To the person tickled pink with the Park Meadows estates lights, thank you. It’s great to get such a compliment and realize the setup time, maintenance and dismantling time this community of senior citizens puts into this display. It’s all their way of saying Merry Christmas to everyone.

The world has transformed dramatically in 50 years. We are learning new skills, changing old habits, embracing digital-life technology.

We got a chinook instead of a storm! T.P. with the editor’s always spot-on comments. T.P. that the Medicine Hat newspaper continues to brighten my morning and I hope will do that through at least 2026 and onwards!

Every time someone, liberal or conservative, says “wake up people” in TOTP, take a drink of water. Stay hydrated, my friends!

With MHN for having the TPTP offering. Also, tickled pink at our great city employees. Tickled pink on all the positive changes coming from the Smith government. All best for 2026.

I am so pleased we have had Liberal governments in Canada that have given us EI, CPP, OAS, family allowance (CCB), medicare and other social programs that make this country such a great place to live.

I called the city with a question about our water distribution system and they called me back, the very next day, with an answer. Thank you for being so helpful. I am also very appreciative of how proactive our city is with maintaining the system.

On Dec. 9, I lost my brand new iPhone 17 in Superstore. If you are the honest person who found it and turned it in, thank you so very much! I wish I could thank you in person.

I see the traffic in Calgary every morning on TV. We don’t have a problem with commuting like they do. Isn’t it great? We should be happy!

With all the Christmas decorations and lights throughout the city.

With the generosity of everyone who tossed their bears during the Tigers Teddy Bear Toss game on Dec 6. Just proves that bears can fly.
