Detainee prisoners situation in Afghanistan

Sunday, February 3rd, 2008

With regards to the detainee prisoners situation in Afghanistan ,why are the opposition parties (Liberals, NDP) and members of the news media in this country, making this thing into a three ring circus. The Afghan army and the Afghan government should be dealing with this problem, not the Canadian military.
Sad to say the opposition parties [...]

Canadian Troops in Afghanistan

Sunday, February 3rd, 2008

Dear Editor,
Now is the time to thank our troops, and bring them home.
We sent them to Afghanistan to depose the Taliban government that had supported terrorist Osama Bin Laden. Our troops and allies succeeded. We asked our troops to secure Kabul, the Afghan capital, for a new democratic government. Again, our troops and allies succeeded. [...]

Canadians in Afghanistan

Monday, January 28th, 2008

Re PMO hiding truth, Dion alleges.” (Jan. 26):
Canada’s military mission in Afghanistan grows more controversial with each passing day. Are we going to become so used to our soldiers coming home in body-bags that it’s only reported in small print? There are so many different reasons given for Canada being part of [...]

Durban Conference has no credibility

Saturday, January 26th, 2008

Dear Editor:
Every Canadian should join B’nai Brith Canada and the Canadian Jewish Congress in thanking our government for the courage to once again take a principled stand in refusing to attend the farcical Durban II UN racism conference in South Africa in 2009. The 2001 conference did little more than provide a platform for the [...]

The Manley Report on Afghanistan

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

Dear Editor:
So Jack Layton feels that the Manley report is out of touch.
“First, it is Jack Layton that is out of touch with the mission in Afghanistan”.
Three questions that I would like to ask regarding Jack Layton?
Has Layton ever served in the Canadian military?
Has Layton ever served in combat?
Has Layton been to Afghanistan to see [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

The Mission in Afghanistan

Wednesday, January 2nd, 2008

Dear Editor:
I’m glad to hear from ex- soldiers point of view about serving in Afghanistan. I think that it is very sad and disgraceful that people like Jack Layton do not support our troops or the mission in Afghanistan. Our Canadian troops are there because they want to be there and want to make [...]

Inexcusably sexist

Tuesday, January 1st, 2008

Dear Editor:
Re: Why Al Qaeda Didn’t Kill Her And The Pakistani Military Did?
You call her “Mrs. Bhutto” which is blatantly incorrect, as she was not married to anyone named Bhutto. The common phenomena of married women using their maiden names renders the antiquated “Mrs.” inaccurate as well as inexcusably sexist.
Please desist.
