Memo to Mayor Gondek and the hateful eight: Learn to live within your means like the rest of us. If you want to make up the $28-million shortfall because the province used common sense and reduced photo radar, then get rid of your worthless personal wants such as the climate emergency, bringing AI into city business, blanket rezoning and pay increases which you have not earned. Bring your own lunches and pay for dinners out of your own pocket instead of ours. Quit being selfish.

Bruce Haynes

(Belt-tightening would help.)

Cash cow or not?

CPS Chief Mark Neufeld said multinova was not a cash cow. Now he’s complaining they are millions short on the police budget because the province limits the areas where it can be used. Sounds like a cash cow to me.

(Sure does.)

Trade lesson for Pierre

It’s clear that Pierre Poilievre has no idea what he is talking about. Take interprovincial trade, for example. The biggest reason why there are trade barriers between provinces is because the provinces are in charge of setting regulations for goods and services. To remove these barriers would require the federal government to take this power away from the provinces. When Poilievre says he will remove trade barriers, he is saying he will expand the federal government.

Mark Fraser

(Hopefully that is not his intention.)

Win-win for Liberals

So Mark Carney’s plan is to eliminate our carbon tax and only to tax/punish corporations, which will charge back to us. But that will also eliminate the need to send out a rebate cheque to the average person. Seems like a win-win for the Liberals (especially since the corps will probably get a rebate or grant or whatever makes the next scandal to come).

(A hidden carbon tax would be worse than a real one.)

Key question

My question that I would like national news journalists to ask is for all Liberal leadership candidates vying to become Canada’s 24th prime minister: “Will you end equalization payments to Quebec (most of this money comes from Alberta oil revenues) if Quebec refuses to allow an Energy East oil pipeline to be built through Quebec to Tidewater in New Brunswick so both Canadian oil & LNG can be easily shipped to Europe?”

Chris Robertson

(Expecting a straight answer?)

Way to go, welder

Hats off to the young woman welder, who caught her porch pirate and took her package back. Great job, I am impressed!

Marilyn Mallow

(So are we.)
