BACK IN BLACK — FOR A FEW MINUTES

Article content

Canada was “Back in black” for about three minutes or so. With the Liberals so far away in another galaxy, I’m surprised Justin Trudeau and his environment minister are not putting the blame on carbon for blocking out the sun on Monday afternoon.

I guess they are both working on how they can tax us for the sun rays and the air we breathe.

DISPLAY THE EMBLEMS

Re: Canada condemns Israeli strike on aid workers in Gaza, demands investigation, online, April 2

Their vans were not identified with universal Red Crescent or Red Cross emblems of international humanitarian aid in a war zone. Why not?

They did, however, display the commercial insignia advertising World Central Kitchen (WCK).

Display the Red Crescent/Red Cross emblem on all humanitarian personnel and vehicles. Anything else is hubris.

BANDAGE SOLUTION

Re: Not just soft pink: The Ottawa Hospital offers patients ‘skin-coloured bandages,’ online, April 1

Regarding skin-tone bandages, instead of purchasing four or five or six different shades of bandages, and having to have so many different types on hand, why not purchase just one kind? Clear ones. That way, the shade will be the exact colour of the skin.

THEY’LL BE LONG GONE

We all know how much socialists enjoy spending someone else’s money, and the prime minister must be really happy these days, along with his NDP buddies. The sad part is they will be long gone enjoying their public pensions by the time the results are known about the damage their reckless spending has caused to the future of Canadians.

LET LARRY RUN THINGS

Just a thought … Larry Comeau for prime minister. We need a good common-sense guy running the country, and every letter he submits to your paper I completely agree with.

ENOUGH ALREADY

If I hear one more word about that eclipse, I’m going to have another blackout!
