Dions trip to Afghanistan

Saturday, January 19th, 2008

Dear Editor:
I see that Stephane Dion is again making stupid comments after returning from Afghanistan. It’s plain to see that this man hasn’t got a clue about our military or the mission. He even goes on to make comments about NATO troops going into Pakistan.
Pakistan has made it clear that no foreign troops [...]

Toronto’s woes

Friday, January 18th, 2008

Dear Editor:
Seeing that the feds and Queens Park have no intention of returning
Toronto’s fair share of taxes, there is only one way to keep the city solvent:
Toronto should declare itself a province and demand equalization payments.

What’s in the works for SENIORS vis-à-vis in the McGuinty Government?

Thursday, January 17th, 2008

Dear Editor,
“What’s in the works for SENIORS vis-à-vis in the McGuinty Government?”
The other day, a senior got a prescription for an Anti-Biotic drug and found out that is was no longer covered under the ONTARIO DRUG PLAN (Trillium Plan). It had been quietly taken off coverage by the McGuinty Liberal Government and was [...]

Why Conservatives Are Losing

Monday, January 14th, 2008

Dear Editor
RE: CFP: Why Conservatives Are Losing
So-called “Conservatives” are losing because the conservative movement in the U.S. (and Canada) has been subverted by an ideology promoted by a largely alien and powerful group, former Trotskyites, who call themselves neoconservatives. The truth, however, is that NeoCons are NOT conservative in any way, shape or form. The [...]

Desnethe-Misinippi-Churchill River

Sunday, January 13th, 2008

Dear Editor:
What an interesting situation in the Desnethe-Misinippi-Churchill River by-election! A Tory who was never a Tory is running as a sort-of Tory while a Tory who was a Tory leadership hopeful is now a Liberal who may not be allowed to run as a Liberal.
Tory is, of course, the word reluctantly accepted as the [...]

FLAKY JACK’S PLATFORM

Sunday, January 13th, 2008

Dear Editor:
UTOPIA!
By William Bedford
It’s Jack Layton, not Stephen Harper, who should be mad at the media. If the media gave as much coverage to Jack as they do to Harper, the voter turnout would explode.
Here’s a peek at the NDP platform which the media ignores:

Support our troops and the mission in Afghanistan

Sunday, January 13th, 2008

Dear Editor:
Many of our Canadian soldiers choose to volunteer for the mission in Afghanistan, so that they can make a difference. Some have given their lives trying to make a difference in the world. To bring these troops home before the job is done is an insult to all of those who wear the Canadian [...]

Charter Fails Canada Once Again

Saturday, January 12th, 2008

Dear Editor
(While I realize that most editors do not acknowledge letters that go to other papers, I have no way to communicate my views other than this method. Should you feel that your policy automatically deletes my view which is of a national concern, then so be it. But I am a proud Canadian and [...]

Obama and Pro life Protestors

Saturday, January 12th, 2008

Dear Editor
Re: CFP: Pro-Life Activists Shut Down Senator Obama Rally
I attended the Barack Obama rally on Mon. Jan. 7, 2008 at the Rochester Opera House in Rochester, NH. In no way could the efforts of the “pro-life” protestors be described as shutting down the rally.
These people merely caused a brief few [...]
