Ticked Off

Talk of a U.S. invasion of Canada should be left to the fiction writers in Hollywood. Come on, people, get real.

Once again Danielle Smith has proven how dedicated to Donald Trump she really is, going into his playbook in order to “direct the judges.” What a disgusting individual running our province, and not one UCP minion has the guts to stop her.

Ticked Off

Premier Smith, you enabled the separatists. Their hidden agenda to join the U.S. is exposed. Jeff Rath unabashedly admits openness to that.

Tickled Pink

For the people who get loud in section during Tigers games, also called the Pickford porch. They are bringing much needed life to that arena, something we haven’t seen in years. I also do my best in other sections to get the Tigers chant going, at least the kids join in!

For another successful Tongue on the Post folk festival. Thank you to all the cafés that put on free shows for us, and the paid events as well at Delta. It was another great great year.

What a mess Alberta has become. We have a premier whose agenda seems to be dominance over the people, we have a failing health-care system and we have separatists who are willing to sell their souls and our province to the U.S. I don’t recognize Alberta anymore and it makes me sad.

Ticked Off

I am a 30-year resident of Riverside. I am ticked at the new homeowners who buy property in this area and then cut down large beautiful trees. If you don’t like trees in your yard then you should have purchased a home in Ross Glen.

Tickled Pink

From what I can determine, it appears city council are working as a team. Tickled pink if it continues.

Ticked Off

Thousands of Canadians fought and died for the freedoms we have today in Canada. Now the far-right separatists are attempting to erase their glory and our heritage, Shame on the separatists and those who support them.

Tickled Pink

I would be if all our UCP provincial government representatives were proCanadian; not proU.S. (authoritarian right-wing supremacists).

Ticked Off

Alberta Premier has done a bang-up job dividing the province. This nonsense is to distract from what her party is really doing. Nothing for the good of the people of Alberta. Our farmers and ranchers feed us, so without them we have nothing. Get off your high horse, premier, you’re not God’s gift to Alberta.

Tickled Pink

An eye opener, separate and watch them leave. Investigate how many head offices and businesses left Quebec prior to its separation vote.

Ticked Off

That Tamara Lich has to go through such a low-life ‘news’ agency as Rebel to voice once again her Freedom woes. Do they not realize we are the most fortunate people to live in Alberta, Canada? I just don’t get you freedom fighters.

Tickled Pink

I’m delighted that Pierre Poilievre is still leader of the Conservatives. No way will they ever win leadership with him.

Ticked Off

Such a question would be posed. Do you think UCP MLAs should have to disclose their official stance on separation? Politicians forget they represent the people that voted for them, not their official stance. (Editor’s note: Click ‘no’ then.)

Ticked Off

Don’t have to ban single-use plastic, people just have to stop being pigs. Put your garbage in the trash can.

Ticked Off

What was Premier Smith doing at the Conservative convention when she clearly wants nothing to do with Canada?

Ticked Off

Who takes their dog to the Southridge Community Park and doesn’t pick up their dog’s business? I’ll tell you who, irresponsible dog owners, that’s who.

Ticked Off

At the overwhelming support for Poilievre at the Conservative convention. When you lose an election, in which you were leading in the polls, and lose your own riding seat, I think the message is pretty clear: You are not what the country is looking for. Now we can expect another loss in the next election.

Tickled Pink

That intelligent people hear the same lies over and over, but still know they are lies. Alberta separatists speak the same lies as Quebec separatists… the grass is greener… you’ll be better off… you’ll be richer… you will be more free.

Tickled Pink

Hat’s off to Crescent Heights Fine Arts staff and students for the outstanding “All Shook Up” presentation. Ms. Davies, Mr. Look and Mr. Perrin are to be commended for their leadership. The students provided a quality production from start to finish. What a sterling example of public education!
