That this city council is so cowardly they kowtow to the religious zealots that vote for them and refuse to stand with the rest of the rational world against conversion therapy. Pathetic.

The United We Roll movement crossed the picket line of oil and gas workers striking to defend their retirement security. Shame! I thought that movement was for the workers, but I guess they’re just corporate boot lickers after all.

Medicine Hat leads bankruptcies in the province and city council can pat themselves on the back as their constant increases for services helped this along.

Justin “not my prime minister” Trudeau would waste taxpayers money by travelling to African nations and grovelling for a useless seat on the UN Security Council.

Mr. Clugston, you are so deeply in Kenny’s pocket it’s sickening.Our CCP is fine. I’m a senior and so far can manage. What we need are rent caps.

So the Canalta Centre is bringing a nice, popular family show to town (Baby Shark) and it could cost a family of four close to $300. for just the tickets. This is ridiculous, to say the least.

The Liberal government has shown they have no real appetite for Alberta’s energy industry this province needs to do like Quebec and control its own resources licensing projects without the feds’ blessing!

That our local MLA refers to the governing party he is a part of as “they.” Is he trying to distance himself from unpopular policy decisions?

The money Trudeau gave to Ethiopia would be better spent subsidizing the housing crisis in our own country.

Statistics Canada reported Canada gained 34,500 jobs in January 2020; for Alberta the result was a loss of 18,900 jobs. Not quite what was promised.

If the deer and rabbit population could get transferred back into the wild where they belong.

When did it get so bad to be old? Even those who claim to be young today will be older tomorrow! Is it not the goal of everyone to be able to live a good, long life?
