By that logic, only parents would have a say on whether to proceed with the 2021 Draft Curriculum. Instead, Minister LaGrange is trying to silence and ... Read More »

Editor: Re: “Sustainability, stock, and seaweed: changing cattle feed to combat climate change” (July 19). The seaweed isn’t always greener. We don’t need to resort to desperate measures like feeding cows seaweed-an unnatural food for grazing land-dwellers-in order to reduce methane emissions.

Editor: I don’t see why people are upset with M.P. Rachael Harder for voting against Bill C6 concerning conversion therapy. She seems to be, along with a few others, to have the brains to see this bill for the ungodly crazy legislation that it is. Here we have a loving mom and dad convincing their ... Read More »

Editor: My wife and I have been in Lethbridge for five days on a house hunting trip as we are moving to Lethbridge from Southern Ontario. We have been very impressed with the city – it’s clean, well-kept, wide roads in good condition, nice parks, and more – and it’s close to interesting sights. But ... Read More »

Editor: In January 2014, I visited the Hoover Dam as I had done off and on since 1983. It was built in the 1930’s and was filled to a level of 1221.40 ft above sea level – FSL (Full Storage Level) right after the construction was concluded in 1935. The lake/reservoir level is currently about ... Read More »
