By Lethbridge Herald on April 27th, 2022
Editor: The province just moved to help people paying high fuel prices by lowering gas taxes. Checking on gas prices this weekend, it seems none of this tax break was going to Albertans.

By Lethbridge Herald on April 21st, 2022
Editor: Mr. Yeoman wrote that Prime Minister Trudeau did not get a good reception to his recent speech to the European Parliament – in fact even that “outspoken parliamentarians denounced him.” This is opposite to the truth.
