Letters to the Editor

To the editor: I was very disappointed with the article written by Fiona Gardiner in the Thunder Bay Source last week. Fiona doesn’t seem to think much of us Canadians.

To the editor: Kudos to Lawrence Timko with regards to his letter, Count Them By Hand, dated March 3, 2010. The poor system he describes is that paper ballots for the municipal election are scanned by machines.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper played a great game of smoke-and-mirrors in delivering the throne speech and a day later, the federal budget.

Every year about this time I run out of things to say. No matter what the topic is it seems like I can’t find the words. I think I need some new material.

To the editor: I read with interest the letter "Signs of the Times" by Jon Hutt about the Renew Thunder Bay signage at the waterfront. He raises a good point about the visibility of the signs.

To the editor: I have expressed my concern on several occasions about the sound quality of city meetings broadcast on our community cable channel. Ms. Hendrick has promptly explained the issue is being looked at.

To the editor: In response to a Letter to the Editor published in the Jan.

Much has been written about Canada’s less-than-stellar Olympic performance. Instead of own the podium, pundits, particularly from south of the border, are saying we’ve blown the podium or flown the podium.

On New Year’s Eve I was in the Metro grocery store and the pace was hectic. Everyone was getting ready for the evening’s festivities.

To the editor: This past November, several signs were erected in Marina Park. These signs promote the Renew Thunder Bay program. These signs also contain a revised plan of Prince Arthur’s Landing.
