Striding up to the Rainier Community Hall, it was difficult to find a parking spot relatively close to the building.
Driving back to Medicine Hat from a trip to Saskatchewan I heard on the radio on this east side of the Alberta Saskatchewan border, I heard about the train derailment near Irvine.
Political cynicism is rampant these days. Not because of the annual jokes of politicians working hard attending barbecues, flipping pancakes or going to various community celebrations. Other than time behind a griddle, the perception of politicians is that there are particularly conspicuous …
Just as I was about to write this, the federal Liberals, totally void of any remorsefulness, announced that a whitewashed Gerald Butts was back in the fold. I’ve maintained all along that Butts has never left the scene. I make that observation due to the Liberals continued devious, irrationa…
Every four years Canadian politicians indulge in a Spin to Win contest. Each party, enters into a bidding contest to buy our votes with our money.
It is easy to jump on the bandwagon of bashing Justin Trudeau, but unfortunately for the federal Liberal Party strategists who are the faceless, nameless people actually running the country, the current prime minister is giving critics the keys and open back gate to that wagon.
Kenney’s blue UCP wants to change Notley’s orange policies so energy sector doesn’t feel anymore green sickness
Change is slow but forward progress is forward progress.
During the 2019 Alberta provincial election it was critical for Jason Kenney that he win the most seats in Calgary. Prognosticators said it was a three pronged election… win two out of Edmonton, Calgary and everywhere else and that party would win. Many predicted the NDP would be strong in E…
Some issues deserve to be given more exposure than others. I am about to name several that should be of considerable interest to you.
Get set for one of the ugliest, nastiest, most no-issue based election ever in Alberta.
All governments must be compelled to be accountable for their disasters.
Given one expensive mess after the other in Ontario and B.C. and the blown billions in Ottawa; I doubt it. One would think the repetitive, ubiquitous, oppressing behaviour should be a clue toward failed expectations for the less than 40% of Canadians who voted them into power, which they han…
While there is plenty of room for change for the good in the new year; it’s the bad that concerns me most!
Should we be filled with a plethora of enthusiasm or ambiguity?
2019 starts off with a Blood Moon on Sunday, January 20th after supper.
As Christians and many close to them lurch from Halloween to Black Friday to Christmas, the large majority stagger reluctantly into the last phase of the mad rush. Yes, the mad rush to spend money we can’t afford to buy things we really don’t need, combined with the insane participation of t…
The federal government made it sound like it was the hero saving the Alberta oil patch when, on Dec. 18, it announced a $1.6 billion aid package for struggling oil companies.
I've never put much stock in the whole "everyone goes crazy under a full moon" theory, until last week when it felt like everyone actually went crazy under a full moon.
First, our Canadian queens and kings.
Friend, coach, colleague, mentor, coffee buddy. No matter how one knew Bow Island's Fred Mellen, they were guaranteed of being left with a lasting impression, a learning experience, and most likely, a few hearty laughs.
The federal government is easily discussed...
THE MELEE IN MALI: Prime Minsiter Justin Trudeau’s contrived, intuitive pipe dream to possibly snag a seat on the dysfunctional U.N. Security Council is shameful! He has sent Canadian troops into the out of control area of Mali.
As the painful, thoughtless, ill conceived refugee crisis plunges deeper and deeper into an expensive black hole that the Liberals cannot in any way rationalize, everyone suffers the consequences.
If there is something about left wingers that is constant and predictable its their irksome, unbridled assumption that they know what is best for everyone. Their odious, short-sightedness perpetuates a babel of manipulated insults, given with little thought of the consequences.
I must speculate that while our prime minister is traveling the world and doing town hall meetings across Canada, that he finds that much more to his liking than spending some time in parliament or actually governing our country.
The Trudeau government has once again introduced legislation that will hurt Canadian companies while helping their foreign competitors.Prime Minister Trudeau’s latest move is not only hurtful to everyone who works in the oil and gas industry, it’s harmful to all the tax-paying companies and …
What a better world we would have, if all politicians were subject to a minimum 70% mark on an economics exam ‘before” they could run for office. Item number one, completely read Sylvia Nasar’s book titled “Grand Pursuit.”
Our world is awash in an absurd, malicious, nebulous disparage, totally lacking apathy. Despots and dummies grapple with reality.
Politics is very complicated. On the one hand, strong opinions need to be possessed in order to show an individual or a party stands for something.
I have grown weary of the nebulous, deceitful responses to important questions posed to our federal government.
