I’LL KEEP COMPLAINING

Re: Stop complaining, letter, online, Jan. 25

No, I won’t stop complaining (about Justin Trudeau). And I hope that the millions of people who didn’t vote for him don’t stop complaining, either. His “sunny ways” promise soon clouded over so severely (talk about a climate change) that, last election, he was returned to power by only about 30 per cent of actual voters.

Trudeau has only been kept in power by his coalition with the NDP. He’s well past his best-before date, which was before he was first elected as an MP.

So, my solution, freely offered, is it’s time for us to really be “in this together” to keep complaining about this wretched prime minister and vote him out. Otherwise, together we’ll be miserably looking years ahead to his “worst-by” date.

WOMEN’S TEAMS NEED NAMES

Re: With Justin Trudeau in crowd, Boston edges Ottawa in PWHL action, online, Jan. 24

Well, there you have it. With a loser like “JT” (Just Terrible) in the crowd, how could any home team be expected to win?

And, by the way, why do these women’s teams remain nameless? No men’s hockey club franchise would launch without a name. Get an identity and stop being like a Loblaw No-Name product.

And why is this league referred to as the PWHL? It is the Women’s Hockey League (WHL). The “professional” is an accepted fact, just as it is with the men’s leagues in North America and Europe. Right?

So, hold a reverse lottery. Fans pay 10 bucks to submit their suggested name for the Ottawa WHL team. The person who has the winning name gets name recognition and a season’s pass, and all the money collected goes to support junior sports for girls. Done.

LIBERAL MELTDOWN

The Liberal troop came out whining with its embellished meltdown over the fact that Tucker Carlson spoke in Alberta. Like him or not, some people chose to pay to hear him speak. That was their choice and right. I wouldn’t pay a dime to see or hear Justin Trudeau, and that would be my right. The Liberals think they are the supreme authority on who or what is acceptable. It seems that is why they are so determined to shut up anyone who disagrees with them. They are desperate and pathetic.
