15 h. ago Letters February 27, 2025: ‘Looking to one of the literary greats for tips.’

Some philosophy I was listening to Pierre Poilievre the other day voicing some disdain for the woke movement. Then it brought to mind Justin Trudeau‘s advocacy for the woke movement. It brought to mind a little quote from Dostoevsky. He said, “Tolerance will reach such a level that intelligent people will be banned from thinking […]

MORE HIGH-SPEED SPENDING Re: Lame-duck PM can’t get off Liberal spending train, Lorne Gunter column, Feb. 23 So here is yet another expense that’s going to cost Canadians billions of tax dollars while our health care, education and military continue to crumble.

STAND UNITED, CANADA We need to be united as a country against the tariff threats that are coming from the United States. They will be enacted. We must buy everything we can that is made here.

CANADIAN BACON  In these turbulent times Calgarians should relax and watch Canadian Bacon while enjoying a glass of Alberta Premium Whisky. The 1995 movie Canadian Bacon by Michael Moore, starring John Candy and Alan Alda, is the perfect metaphor depicting the current DYSTOPIAN TRUMPONIUM TARIFFS.

QUEBEC ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT I have a simple suggestion that might encourage Bloc Québécois Leader Yves-François Blanchet and Premier François Legault to see more clearly regarding their opposition to a pipeline.

1 week ago Letters February 14, 2025: ‘Where did our resolve to fix climate change with taxes go?’

What happened? I remember when global warming was a threat and how we as a nation must reduce our emissions. Carbon taxes were to be the answer and if you did not agree you were a global warming denier. I couldn’t see (and still cannot) how the major emitters did not punish their economies with […]
