Letters to the Editor

Kamala Harris a worthy and serious presidential candidate

By Lethbridge Herald on August 23rd, 2024

Editor: Re: “Harris won’t have the support of Democrats in the election”: In a recent Letter to the Editor, the writer states “Biden was dumped….Harris was  selected by party insiders to replace him…”  and concludes that Democrats will not support her.   Today, Biden is still the American president.  He chose Kamala Harris as his ...

Prime Minister doesn’t deserve all the blame being put on him

By Lethbridge Herald on August 16th, 2024

 Editor: It’s rather sad/humorous that Justin seems to have such power! Did he also start the Second World War? Or are we just ready for a “new” government, one which will take away all those benefits that we are complaining about because they cost so much?  Remember, if our budget becomes balanced, where do you ...

Harris won’t have the support of Democrats in the election

By Lethbridge Herald on August 16th, 2024

Editor: Joe Biden, the incumbent President, won the majority of party delegates last March to receive the Democrat nomination for this fall’s election. There was an actual democratic process involved; “uncommitted” took second place. No such process has yet vetted Kamala Harris.  Biden was unceremoniously dumped after his disastrous debate June 27, and Harris was ... Read More »

Comforts are leading to complacency among today’s youth

By Lethbridge Herald on August 14th, 2024

Editor: I worry for the youth of today, because I’m one of them. As an 18-year-old I have not been on this Earth for very long, but in my short tenure as a person I have borne witness to things that shake me to the core.  My peers have been granted much by the generations ... Read More »

Why not design back lanes downtown to accomodate bikes?

By Lethbridge Herald on August 10th, 2024

Editor: Over the last several months, I have read in the Roast and Toasts or the editorials of the Lethbridge Herald, the pros and cons of bike paths in the down town area of Lethbridge.  It is rather obvious to me that the people who submit the cons either don’t own a bike or they ... Read More »

Pathways Alliance needs to look at their policies and profits

By Lethbridge Herald on August 10th, 2024

Editor:  Every business – whether you are a one person, home operation or a large conglomerate with 5,000 employees – needs to step back and see how what you are doing affects your family, all Albertans, Canadians and the World – yes, even the world. I remember my university professors stating that growth in business ... Read More »

Science and religion aren’t contradictory

By Lethbridge Herald on August 7th, 2024

Editor: I felt sick a few days ago. I took a COVID test. It was positive. The interesting thing is I felt better finding the nature of illness though I was still feeling unwell unlike cats.   They hide when they feel something is wrong with them. My guess is: they don’t now what’s wrong but ... Read More »

Alberta’s grizzy bear hunt plan raises eyebrows

By Lethbridge Herald on July 31st, 2024

Editor: Alberta’s eyeopening decision to give everyday Albertans an opportunity to hunt grizzly bears has raised eyebrows.  “What could go wrong?” someone asked. Well, seemingly, nothing. This province’s cunning, outside-the-box, problem-solving, grizzly-eradicating thinking opens the door to additional strategies the Government of Alberta might use to demonstrate its brand of cutting-edge leadership and innovative action. ...

Mayor and council need to listen to the majority

By Lethbridge Herald on July 26th, 2024

Editor: Our council has spent many thousands of our dollars to install bike lanes along 4th Avenue in the downtown area which are rarely, if ever, used.  Meanwhile many potholes from two winters ago remain and are simply getting bigger. The potholes from the past winter remain just that – potholes.  We are now halfway ... Read More »

Ottawa is not trying to steal all of Albertans’ money

By Lethbridge Herald on July 19th, 2024

Editor: While those of us conservatives from the world of finance continue to watch Albertans be cheated out of their oil and corporate tax wealth by these phony conservatives, Reformers, we watch Alaska and Norway continue to reap the benefits of their oil wealth by building up their Alaska Permanent Fund and Norge Bank Investment ...
