I can not let this letter go without comment. My original article was about defacing the Canadian flag. How is that homophobic?  In this cancel culture you do not need an valid argument against someone who disagrees with you, you simply use a slur against them.As for needing training, well… READ MORE

Seems to me that when an election is held every 4 years, the expectation is that the ruling party will do the best that they can, to serve their constituents, during their allotted time in office. We should put an end to the possibility of having an election before the… READ MORE

Maybe I should have written this letter prior to the election, but I really don’t presume I would have any influence on voters. Although I’ve never been a party loyalist, I would like to take this opportunity to “protest” Randy, Mad Max, Derek and their entourages. I would say my… READ MORE
