The wonders of energy
By Letter to the Editor on January 24th, 2018
Not all and not even many are able to see the wonder in energy. How it is able to be an electron and as an electron can circle a nucleus of protons and neutrons to be an atom. Atoms that can connect with other atoms to form a mass, where the energy has a place ... Read More »
Be the first to comment!Hat could learn recycling lessons from Vancouver
By Letter to the Editor on January 24th, 2018
We spent more than a week in Vancouver visiting family over Christmas and became very aware of how much garbage 14 people under one roof can produce. We were trying hard to get on board with the Vancouver rules and we soon recognized Medicine Hat could make a lot of adjustments to our recycling/garbage system. ... Read More »
Be the first to comment!Offering prayers for local trustee
By Letter to the Editor on January 24th, 2018
Re: “Catholic chair has choice words for trustee,” Jan. 10 and “Trustees spar over St. Thomas decision,” Jan.11 There must be method in the madness of Medicine Hat Catholic Board of Education airing its dirty linen in public. Or has God engineered these circumstances in order to expose the truth behind MHCBE’s slogan, “Sharing the ... Read More »
Be the first to comment!How helpful is the carbon tax?
By Letter to the Editor on January 23rd, 2018
Once again carbon taxation is in the news, this time from a federal perspective. But what about our provincial carbon tax? I feel that at the very least we as taxpayers are owed a report card on the effects of our carbon tax especially on its one year anniversary. How much money did it bring ... Read More »
2 responsesTrudeau’s abortion policies raising ire in Canada as well
By Letter to the Editor on January 23rd, 2018
Re: ‘Trudeau abortion view raises ire of US right,” Jan. 16 Those of the U.S. right are not alone. Mr. Trudeau’s abortion policies raise the ire of many Canadians also. Mr. Trudeau’s views are shared by other like-minded people, but not by Canadians as a whole. Denying federal job support for students with the wrong ... Read More »
Be the first to comment!Comments not rational, civilized or reasonable
By Letter to the Editor on January 18th, 2018
Re: “If our society doesn’t fight ‘forces of progressive leftist evil’ then evil wil win,” Jan. 5 What an interesting, but entirely unenlightening, letter from Leath Johnston. The first paragraphs of the letter got my attention, so I was hoping to find out more about how to “pushback . . . Mr. Mueller and his ... Read More »
2 responsesNDP not evil, but the party has made its share of mistakes
By Letter to the Editor on January 17th, 2018
In the United States “forces of progressive leftist evil” lost the last federal election. The winners (and losers) and the world got Donald Trump. Were freedom, truth and reality really victorious? Never before except in the last provincial election did I ever vote anything other than conservative. But something had to change. After watching the ... Read More »
1 responseTrue leadership shown by one city councillor
By Letter to the Editor on January 17th, 2018
During the final city council meeting of 2017, rookie councilor Kris Samraj during his first council meeting raised a concern in regards to an established city program, Hat Smart. Not only did he raise his concerns but had the fortitude to vote against continuing the program in its current format, displaying the courage of his ... Read More »
1 responseAlberta’s woes began long before the NDP came to power
By Letter to the Editor on January 17th, 2018
My conservative friends and I continue to find it hard to believe what a farce politics in Alberta have become. While we watch our fellow seniors going around badmouthing the Liberals and finding it smart to criticize us for electing the NDP, they ignore the fact that they were the ones who supported Ralph Klein ...

Be the first to comment!Nothing wrong with New Year’s Eve fireworks
By Letter to the Editor on January 12th, 2018
As a regular business visitor from Calgary to Medicine Hat for almost 24 years, I’ve always enjoyed your paper, especially Ticked Off and Tickled Pink. Love your beautiful city, too. I have to laugh at most Ticked Off comments. You citizens have no idea on how good you have it here. I think we could ... Read More »
1 responseTrudeau negotiating trade is Canada sending a boy to do a man’s job
By Letter to the Editor on January 12th, 2018
It would seem more timely if certain contributors to the News would enlighten readers with current events in Canada instead of being fixated with “old news,” American politics, especially bashing President Donald Trump to antiperistalsis. Or is everything perfect in Canadiana? I hardly think so. Our Boy Wonder Trudeau was recently invited to China for ... Read More »
