Letter: Thoughts on trash and the rising cost of food
By Letter to the Editor on September 17th, 2022
Dear editor, Referring to the ‘new’ trash situation and the latest articles in the News regarding the cost of food. I remember a more recent time when the more prevalent ‘trash’, in ditches, on our streets – well, anywhere – consisted of mostly ‘coffin nail butts’ and their empty packages. The cig butts and their ... Read More »
1 responseLetter: Notley’s NDP was effective in management, did not burn down pillars of industry
By Letter to the Editor on August 4th, 2022
In response to Marty Malmgren’s July 13 letter to the editor. Dear editor, I would like to point out a few misleading arguments, hysterical language and downright misinformation. A sad and weak argument of some (maybe only a few at this point) conservatives. Mr. Malmgren bandies about the title of socialism in contemptuous tones in ... Read More »

1 responseLetter: Smith not necessarily front-runner
By Letter to the Editor on August 3rd, 2022
Dear editor, Following the UCP leadership debate this week, I was disappointed by the News’s July 29 front page headline “Smith deemed front-runner.” In the article several political analysts are quoted to have reached the conclusion that Smith is leading the race due to the fact that the other candidates focused most of their attacks ...

1 responseLetter: Recent letter’s assertion of Emergencies Act and how it was implemented is false
By Letter to the Editor on July 14th, 2022
Dear Editor: Re: July 13 letter from Mr. Ken Pirie Mr. Pirie was inaccurate calling the Emergencies Act the “Emergency Measures Act,” which has never existed.

2 responsesLetter: Liberals need a train straight out of Ottawa
By Letter to the Editor on July 14th, 2022
Dear editor, More Liberal arrogance and ignorance. The orange romper clad convicted eco terrorist Federal Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault has yet again shown the arrogance we expect from Liberal politicians. He announced in Glasgow Scotland he would be touring Canada by Via Rail. Problem is Via Rail, a federal Crown corporation, stopped service to five ... Read More »
1 responseLetter: Trudeau is the divisive extremist, not Poilievre
By Letter to the Editor on July 13th, 2022
Dear editor, In response to a letter published July 05, 2022 Personally, I can’t wait for the day Pierre Poilievre becomes Prime Minister of this country; Trudeau, Singh and company are damaged goods well beyond their political “best by date.” This is exactly why people like Mr. Spiller are now trying to demonize Pierre Poilievre ...

By Letter to the Editor on July 13th, 2022
Dear editor, Auf Wiedersehen is often used as ‘goodbye’, the more literal German meaning is ‘on seeing (one/you) again.” Here we are again with another election in the not so distant future. Clowns of all political stripes are maneuvering to take the stage soon. Herr Mueller advocates for a socialist NDP victory, but I am ... Read More »
1 responseLetter: Enough with the extremist-loving fake conservatism
By Letter to the Editor on July 5th, 2022
Dear editor, The true conservatives in my world have had it with these fake conservatives and their supporters treating Albertans and Canadians like morons while they try to copy the American-style Republican Party extremists’ brand of stupidity. Apparently Pierre Poilievre hasn’t learned that this type of stupidity got Andrew Scheer and Erin O’Toole defeated, yet ... Read More »
4 responsesLetter: United Conservatives are just not qualified to hold government in this province
By Letter to the Editor on June 30th, 2022
Dear editor, There are many reasons to not vote for the UCP in May 2023. Think mishandling of COVID mandates, picking fights with doctors, nurses, teachers, underfunding university and colleges and financially manipulating faculty offerings, increasing tuition fees, insurance premiums, camping fees, park entry fees, doling out billions to corporations and phantom pipelines, and funding ...
