Same old story

Article content

Marc Miller, the new minister of Canadian Identity and Culture. Isn’t he the old minister who implemented Trudeau’s turnstile immigration program which has had a profound impact on Canada’s identity and culture? Is Miller now going to finish the job, add to what he’s done, change what he’s done or simply continue down the path he started?

Historic mistake

They say that history repeats itself or as Winston Churchill quoted, “Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” Danielle Smith, remember your foray with Jim Prentice. Carney just looks different, but his modus operandi is the same! You know how that worked out for you and your party!

Megalomaniac

This definition of a megalomaniac is the best insight into U.S. President Donald Trump that I have encountered. If you are aggravated beyond reason by this despicable man, perhaps these words will help you to self-regulate your stress and frustration that the mere sight of him engenders. “People with megalomania are obsessed with power and will do anything to gain it. They have delusions of grandeur and can’t see their faults or shortcomings. Additionally, they don’t always realize that their view doesn’t correspond to reality. These people often use insults and narcissism to cover their subconscious fears. Their fear of inferiority makes them want to hurt others with ridicule and threats because it makes them feel good about themselves.” Good luck!

Peace plan

It is an understatement to say President Trump’s peace plan needs some work. Its major flaw is that it requires Ukraine to surrender territory taken by force. That is completely contrary to the United Nations Charter and the 1994 Budapest Memorandum. Your editorial asks what would be an acceptable peace plan from a Canadian perspective. I suggest Ukraine agree not to become a member of NATO and that there be constitutional guarantees for the Russian language and Russian speakers in Ukraine. The territory currently occupied by Russia should become a demilitarized zone policed by non-NATO countries.
