Re: “It’s hard to make any sense of some arguments,” May 19 As a sensible person, I along with millions of others fully support the reasons for being pro-life as opposed to pro-abortion. We believe human life is sacred from the womb to the tomb. We do not regard animal life in the same way ... Read More »

We have kinds of stigma in our society against mental illness, developed delayed folks, people who look different from us, people who act different from us and people who take drugs.

On June 1, the Medicine Hat News published a story in response to my unpublished letter to the editor involving censorship with the Medicine Hat Public Library Facebook page.

Re: “Medicine Hat has a weed problem,” June 8 I agree wholeheartedly with Ken Pirie’s letter to the editor.
