Letters to the Editor


Freedom in truth

To the editor: I have some reflections on the crisis in the Roman Catholic Church related to sexual abuse. The church is both a religious and political organization.

Flawed designs

To the editor: Have you ever noticed how relaxing driving through the prairies can be? Have you ever noticed how relaxing sitting on your deck looking out over the lake at your cottage can be? These are just two examples of how strong horizontal line

Plans are a safety risk

To the editor: Further to numerous recent letters to the editor, the writers and the public in general may not be aware that in the early 1990s (excluding the Copenhagen/Hodder intersection) the provincial government saw the necessary need, conducted

City could make history

To the editor: Wow! If this windfarm goes ahead, our current council will be credited in the history books for being the first to exploit and deface the 2.5 billion year old Nor’Westers.

Dare to dream

I find it interesting how dreams play such a large role in our language, our culture and our hopes and aspirations. From the time when our mothers first wish us sweet dreams until we draw our last breath, most of us are chasing one dream or another.

Abuse of power

They say the only two sure things in life are death and taxes. A visit from the Grim Reaper is tragic but some Canadian taxpayers are finding out that when the Canada Revenue Agency comes to call, it can be almost as bad.
