By Letter to the Editor on February 13th, 2021
Editor: Canada has been a global leader in investment and showed political leadership in support of COVAX, and we should celebrate this!

By Letter to the Editor on February 12th, 2021
Editor: It was easily foreseen that suddenly Canada is pulling vaccines from an entity that was designed to provide Vaccines to countries who could not afford to purchase them. In fact, the signals have been sent by our illustrious Prime Minister for months. The only thing I do not understand about this Prime Minister is ... Read More »

3 responsesCity creates bullying behaviour
By Letter to the Editor on February 11th, 2021
Editor: The disgusting display by the woman where she argued, “she had a medical exemption to not wear a mask,”was a drop in a huge ocean of ignorance and disrespect, that most workers, have had to deal with in Lethbridge. Lethbridge City’s inability to give clear and concise laws, concerning masks and Covid protocols, have ... Read More »

By Letter to the Editor on February 11th, 2021
Editor: The issue of illegal surveillance of then Environment Minister Shannon Phillips by two Lethbridge police officers has been reopened. Comment in the press and by MLA Phillips has focused on questions of public trust. That, to me, misses the most important point. The officers spied on Phillips and those meeting with her, posted photos ... Read More »

Editor: The Lethbridge Herald Jan. 23 2021 carried a front page, scathing commentary by Ms. Harder on the XL pipeline being the fault of Mr. Trudeau. It seems Ms. Harder is woefully uninformed on the history of this pipeline. She apparently does not do her homework before making her vitriolic pronouncements. Mr. Harper in 2013 ... Read More »

1 responseWe can’t just abolish the Senate
By Lethbridge Herald on January 28th, 2021
Editor: We cannot just “abolish” the post of governor general without serious thought about its necessary replacement. It must be replaced if it is not to be continued. All nations have a head of state. In most cases, that person’s office is “president” and others are some form of monarch title such as king/queen (Britain, ... Read More »
Be the first to comment!COVID protection doesn’t only involve Canada
By Lethbridge Herald on December 26th, 2020
Dr. Theresa Tam, Canada’s Chief public health officer, recently announced that: “This pandemic has demonstrated that inequities in our society place some populations — and ultimately, all Canadians at risk. No one is protected from the risk of COVID-19 until everyone is protected.” This doesn’t mean only within Canada: as long as the virus circulates, ... Read More »
