Food bank’s plan for Central Park space doesn’t make sense
By Letter to the Editor on October 21st, 2019
The idea of turning Central Park School into an expanded food bank is an idea that is stupid beyond comprehension. I haven’t heard anything so dumb since our mayor told national media that Medicine Hat had become the first city to eliminate homelessness. Homelessness is in fact increasing in Medicine Hat because homeless persons, through ... Read More »
Be the first to comment!False climate prophecies
By Letter to the Editor on October 18th, 2019
The biggest crisis facing the world is not climate change. It is the murder of millions of babies through abortion. I agree 100% with Richard Dietrich’s letter (“Adult manipulation and media sensationalism,” Oct. 11). The climate crisis is a manufactured crisis. The end of the world is not imminent. In 2008, Al Gore said, the ... Read More »

By Letter to the Editor on October 16th, 2019
Re: “Regrettably, ‘Unplanned’ can’t be unseen,” Sept. 30 I too, attended the showing of the movie, “Unplanned” at the Monarch Theatre. While the writer of the aforementioned letter dwells to a large degree on, in her words, “obscene gore,” that is not at all what made an impression on me. What did affect me, however, ... Read More »

Re: “You’re up, Premier Kenney,” Oct. 5 Thank you to Mr. Peter Mueller for his guest column. In that column he compared the suicidal antics and stupid warmongering of the world leaders 60 years ago to the willful blindness and simplistic stupidity of world leaders in the last four decades regarding human-caused climate change. His ... Read More »

By Letter to the Editor on October 11th, 2019
If you have not read Arthur Millar’s “The Crucible” perhaps now is the time. St. Greta Thunberg is accusingly crying out “witchery” and the world is ready to burn critics of current climate change theory at the stake. We have dismissed rational debate of how to address apparent climate changes, replacing it with appeals to ... Read More »

Re: “Child abuse in the name of climate change,” Sept. 28 Anyone can say anything in print or online, so long as it does not infringe on the rights of another; this is the basis for freedom of speech in Canada. A person can assert that Sasquatch is responsible for the Alberta recession. It is ... Read More »
Be the first to comment!Canada is becoming a ‘repressive dictatorship’
By Letter to the Editor on October 4th, 2019
An unpleasantness which is all too common in Canada erupted recently when a new Chick-fil-A restaurant opened in Toronto. A bevy of bigots quickly gathered to protest the opening because the company’s owners held what protesters consider to be incorrect political opinions, and therefore their business has no right to operate in Canada. I deplore ... Read More »

By Letter to the Editor on October 4th, 2019
Last month, new data released by the Canadian Cancer Society told us that the breast cancer death rate in women has been almost cut in half since it peaked in 1986. This incredible new statistic shows us that years of dedicated research funding are producing outcomes that are making a real difference in the lives ... Read More »
