2 w. ago Letters June 27, 2025: ‘Making our new military spending target will be no problem, if we do it right.’

  Military target should be easy It will be easy to hit our 5% of GDP target for military spending. We simply just have to convert all military equipment (tanks, airplanes, subs, etc.) to run off renewable energy. The other option would be to reduce the denominator of the equation by eliminating all natural resource […]

2 w. ago Letters June 26, 2025: ‘Allowing a country’s leadership to start wars means you’re complicit.’

Blame the people  Old men do not start wars. Bad nation actors cause wars. It’s fight them now or fight them later.  Real bad non-democratic countries are the problem. Make no mistake that citizens of some countries choose to live under bad regimes. For example, Palestinians choose to live under Hamas, the Germans chose to […]

CO-OP HOUSING Apart from the fact that young potential home buyers face a multitude of obstacles when attempting to become a homeowner, such as mortgage costs, large down payments, huge development fees and costs, I suggest that our government and developers concentrate on building co-operative housing to allow the 40-year-old generation to move out of […]

3 w. ago Letters June 24, 2025: ‘Carney should worry about Canada before speaking out globally.’

Too soon, Carney Here we have Mark Carney, barely prime minister of Canada for less than two months and he is already barking out orders to the global community ‘to calm down’.  I am quite sure Trump, Netanyahu and even Zelenskyy are all standing at attention on the global parade square as this newbie from […]

TRUMP THE CAT, CARNEY THE MOUSE Donald Trump using “Mark” instead of Prime Minister Carney shows that Trump sees a very weak man — he does it more subtly than he did for Justin Trudeau! Trump’s still playing Carney — he sees a weakness in Carney. Carney looks completely out of his depth and Trump […]

Who’s taking the credit Four great players the Calgary Flames franchise seem to let fall through the cracks are: John, Matt, Sean and, the 2025 Conn Smythe Trophy winner, Sam Bennett. Maybe the Flames will luck-out at the upcoming NHL draft and get the ball rolling again? Perhaps, the Calgary Flames’ woes aren’t so much […]

4 w. ago Letters June 17, 2025: ‘Carney could have, and should have, kept Trump out.’

Just the truth I have a suggestion for a headline: Prime Minister Mark Carney grants President Trump permission to enter Canada by waving Canada’s restrictions for convicted felons to enter the country. Maybe big bold lettering covering half a page. Larry Dean Baker (It’s a little wordy. We like your thinking though.) Own the blame, […]
