Letters to the Editor

Good customer service will make it easier to buy Canadian

By Lethbridge Herald on May 24th, 2025

Editor, Even though I don’t like the orange-faced, weird hair, felon that is in charge of the United  States, with his stupid concepts, and a total lack of education and common sense, I do have to give him some kudos. He has spurred Canada into becoming a more united country, more than we have been, for ... Read More »

Energy Regulator serves itself, not us

By Lethbridge Herald on May 23rd, 2025

Editor, Further to the May 2) Lethbridge Herald Guest column by Lorne Fitch titled “Energy Regulator has done the bare minimum”, I respectfully submit the following.  As an industry-funded, self-regulatory body, I find the Alberta Energy Regulator (AER), does very little for the public, while doing the maximum to serve the industry who pays their ...

Premier should clean her own house before telling others how to govern

By Lethbridge Herald on May 23rd, 2025

Editor, An open Letter to Premier Danielle Smith: Before you even think of separating Alberta from Canada, which I believe is just a ploy to divert Albertans’ attention to the mess that you have created with the Health System, I suggest that you clean your house first.  Revise or drop the bills that are not ...

Carney doesn’t walk the walk as a ‘devout’ Catholic

By Lethbridge Herald on May 21st, 2025

Editor, Re: “Carney travelling to Rome today, will be among world leaders at Pope’s inaugural mass,” May 16. The article states: “Carney is a devout Catholic…”  This is a false statement.   Marc Carney  supports and advocates for abortion, euthanasia and same-sex marriage.   The Catholic Church teaches, as everybody knows, against all of these.  ...

NDP supporters get all the airtime in the Herald

By Lethbridge Herald on May 21st, 2025

Editor, First of all, I find it strange that this submission by Mr. Phil Burpee got the time of day from the Lethbridge Herald. It would appear the Herald has no issue with publishing a misogynist maligning rant as long as its directed at the UCP. The rant even violates their own stated rules of ... Read More »

Recruiting difficulties to blame for slow CRH emergency room

By Lethbridge Herald on May 21st, 2025

Editor, We are the Emergency Medicine physician group at Chinook Regional Hospital in Lethbridge. We want to update the community about the ongoing shortage of doctors in our emergency department. In the summer of 2024, Alberta Health Services (AHS) announced that some days we would have fewer doctors available in the department. Unfortunately, this shortage ... Read More »

Smith seems to be seeking royal position

By Lethbridge Herald on May 16th, 2025

Editor, In case there were any doubts Alberta’s Premier was a science-denying demagogue with designs on the throne of Alberta, Danielle Smith’s startling televised speech to the public buried those doubts like a tank of pumped fracking fluid. We can assume our own UCP representative, Nathan Neudorf, is firm in his backing of her quest ... Read More »

Premier’s views on Alberta sovereignty out of step with history

By Lethbridge Herald on May 16th, 2025

Editor, To Danielle Smith: I am one of 41 million citizens of Canada.    Our Canadian passports are recognized around the world.  I am also one of about 5 million residents of Alberta and have been an Albertan for most of my life.   My sovereign  is King Charles. My province was created 120 years ... Read More »

Mine could be beneficial to Crowsnest Pass

By Lethbridge Herald on May 16th, 2025

Editor, There are the vast majority of people who are against the coal mine in the Crowsnest Pass who have no idea where the water is coming from nor do they know the small amount that is needed every year. There were two areas that had been dug down to create deep pits on the ... Read More »

Alberta’s students deserve better

By Lethbridge Herald on May 16th, 2025

Editor, Nathan Neudorf, the UCP MLA for Lethbridge East riding, is celebrating the modernization, expansion, and building of schools in the Lethbridge School District, (Lethbridge Herald, May 9, 2025). But building and modernizing schools will not help if the education system itself is broken. The Alberta government is starving the system of resources: Alberta has the lowest ... Read More »

Smith doesn’t speak for the majority

By Lethbridge Herald on May 14th, 2025

Editor, I am feeling anxious about Premier Smith’s well-being. My concern is that she may be suffering from a peptic condition. The reason I say this is because every time she opens her mouth there seems to be nothing other than a spume of acrid bile coming out.  At the very least I think a ... Read More »
