Letters to the Editor


LETTER: Turbines not part of Mother Earth's plan

To the editor: Am applauding Fort William First Nation Chief Peter Collins and all the other opponents regarding those monsters called wind turbines. As a First Nations woman, have spent much time speaking against the development of them.

OPINION: The other red meat

LETTER: Cataract surgery, a great ROI for health care

The Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care is correct in stating that thresholds for cataract surgery have lowered.

OPINION: Parliamentary void

My fellow Canadians, can we talk? I think there is something seriously wrong with Canada’s Parliament. This once venerable institution has been lost in a parliamentary void. Two recent events have led me to this sad conclusion.

EDITORIAL: Detox beds necessary

The North West Local Health Integration Network got it right. Or at least they took a major step in the right direction.
