Ticked Off By the person that said, “As an adult without children what do I get out of $25 daycare.” Perhaps you should think about supporting a generation that will be taking care of you when you get old. Ticked Off The mayor commented in the State of the City address that he was not ... Read More »

Ticked Off I’d probably take in more events in Medicine Hat, but then I realize I’d probably have to interact with people who write in to this column, so I just go to events in Calgary or Lethbridge instead. It’s worth the drive. Tickled Pink To know what all the MLAs are doing in our ... Read More »

Tickled Pink This year’s Tongue on the Post Folk Music Festival was fantastic!

Ticked Off As a former city employee in Parks and Rec, I can safely say that there are millions of dollars wasted every year. Lazy workers who genuinely believe they are doing the city a service just by waking up every morning, driving around town and spraying one weed or weed-whipping one tree. Ticked Off ... Read More »

Ticked Off It was quite comical to see MLA Drew Barnes seated at the Alberta Fair Deal Panel table and MLA Michaela Glasgo in the audience since neither one of them has been able to secure Medicine Hat and the region (their ridings) a fair deal with their own UCP government. Tickled Pink The largest ... Read More »

Ticked Off My insurance company has bought into this climate change crap. Really, where is the proof? Maybe charge more to distracted drivers causing more accidents. Tickled Pink I’ve probably missed more Sunday sermons than I should have but I’m thankful the UCP government could remind me that God did not ask his faithful to ... Read More »

Ticked Off At the sheep from both sides of the political spectrum. Try looking at policy piece by piece. Falling in line with a political party with absolute support is both stupid and dangerous. Ticked Off The latest downing of a commercial airliner by the brutal Iranian regime should be a wake up call to ... Read More »

Ticked Off The Before and After School Program in this city is just in a state of shambles. There appears to be no structure at all, the fees went up last year, and yet we seem to be getting a level of care well below what it was before the hike. They can’t seem to ... Read More »

Ticked Off Thanks to the recent Alberta budget 2020 will see financial institutions, insurance companies, foreign-owned corporations and their directors all see better after-tax profits. Unfortunately, life for the disabled, those dependent on medical care or individuals attempting to upgrade their job skills or education won’t be quite as fortunate. Ticked Off The U.S. spends ...

Ticked Off Considering Medicine Hat has the lowest average paid wages in Alberta, one would assume that MLAs Drew Barnes and Michaela Glasgo would be fighting to prevent outrageous auto insurance premium hikes, auto registration renewal increases, ballooning daycare fees and higher taxes. Tickled Pink The old Woolworth store on Third Street will be empty. ... Read More »

Tickled Pink Thank you Hatcher Drive NE, lights up and bright, just wonderful and marvelous; best participation yet! Tickled Pink Shopping was a breeze again this year! A few clicks of the keyboard and mouse was so much easier than dealing with tattooed, pierced-up, semi-literate retail employees who could care less if I was shopping ... Read More »
