God has standards which much of society fails to recognize
By Letter to the Editor on May 4th, 2019
Michael Plait was right about one thing in his April 5 letter: The UCP has no direct connection to Jesus’s ministry. Neither do other political parties. I think that Jesus’s ministry is often misunderstood. His universal acceptance of people does not imply a blanket approval. Jesus recognized sin, hence his atoning sacrifice and the help ...

Be the first to comment!Response to recent attacks on places of worship
By Letter to the Editor on May 4th, 2019
In the last several weeks the world has seen a rash of attacks on places of worship. There was the shooting in the mosque in Christchurch, New Zealand; the bombing of churches (and hotels) in Sri Lanka; and then the shooting in the synagogue in Poway, Calif. Places intended to be sanctuaries in which one ... Read More »
Be the first to comment!Celebrating death in Canada?
By Letter to the Editor on May 4th, 2019
Almost 75 years ago the Allied forces invaded Normandy with the intent of freeing Europe from the grasp of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party, the Nazis. In less than six months the Allies discovered the death camps, where literally millions of souls were murdered because they did not fit the ideal of human nature ... Read More »
1 responseJesus Christ created all things
By Letter to the Editor on May 2nd, 2019
Two letters recently took issue with the truth and accuracy of God’s word: That the six days of creation were much longer. Evolutionists, I believe, say more like 4.8 billion years. That is very strange because such time cannot be measured back to creation. Science depends upon repetition and testing but this cannot be possible. ... Read More »
2 responsesCongratulations to all those who ran, best wishes to the populace
By Letter to the Editor on May 1st, 2019
Congratulations to all candidates for Brooks-Medicine Hat and Cypress-Medicine Hat for your valiant efforts these past few months. Congratulations also to the recently re-elected Barnes and the elected Glasgo. Here’s hoping you both go on to do a stand-up job in your provincial roles. To all the front line workers, teachers and unionists, best wishes ... Read More »
4 responsesMental Health Awareness Week: You have to live your own lives
By Letter to the Editor on April 29th, 2019
Mental Health Awareness Week is the first week in May. It is about taking care of yourself mentally and the choices you make in life. The other day I saw a fellow who I hadn’t see for some time who I barely recognized and who looked liked he may have been off his meds. At ... Read More »
Be the first to comment!Seeking out terror groups
By Letter to the Editor on April 26th, 2019
Well that did not take long. Rachel Notley’s office chair isn’t even cold and the federal government has paid $1.2 million for a report on possible Alberta homegrown terror groups who may or may not be possibly considering or thinking about or maybe talking or maybe thinking about being one of 14 people who may ...

1 responseAdvice for Kenney: Hike price of gas
By Letter to the Editor on April 26th, 2019
Here’s some free advice for Jason Kenney, and it’s worth every penny. Smack down that big, bad Alberta deficit fast. Tie the price of gasoline to British Columbia’s. Don’t, for heaven’s sake, call it a tax or a fee. Albertans hate those. Today I saw a filling station in metro Vancouver selling regular unleaded for ... Read More »
2 responsesQuestioning the reliability of WestJet
By Letter to the Editor on April 26th, 2019
Only a few months ago it was announced that WestJet was to have regularly scheduled flights from Medicine Hat. We waited in anticipation for al those promises … more choices, lower fares, etc. Those were promises. Now for reality. These are recent examples: – On a recent international flight into Calgary on Boxing Day (very ... Read More »
1 responseAlbertans apparently voted for trouble under Jason Kenney
By Letter to the Editor on April 25th, 2019
A senior in our circle of friends nailed it. A day after we all helped Notley get elected in 2015, he said she will never get re-elected in 2019. There is no way she will be able to fix the mess the Klein, Stelmach and Redford governments created for us over a 25-year period in ... Read More »
Be the first to comment!Who are the real hypocrites?
By Letter to the Editor on April 25th, 2019
Canada as we know it suffers from many maladies, hollowed out beliefs, weakened ethics, declining trust in institutions and leaders, self-enriching elites, politicized criminal justice, dirt bag politics, decaying infrastructure, crippling national provincial and personal debt, cancerous racism, fractious culture warring, swollen prisons, puerile attempts by both the left and right to undermine each other’s ...
