Re: WARMINGTON: Trudeau, Governor General snub Queen Victoria’s birthday, online, May 21

Article content

It’s not surprising that the likes of Trudeau, Simon and Chow failed to acknowledge Queen Victoria’s birthday. It was a calculated and deliberate snub.

Anything and anyone who has the scent of “colonialism” in their life is being systematically wiped from our history. It’s all part of Trudeau’s end game to erase everything that made us what we are as a country. He’s already stated that Canada has no identity and he’s taken it upon himself to make sure that anything that reminds us of who we are as country is gone. He thinks he and he alone should be allowed to shape and define Canada.

Everything he has done to date since 2015 has been done on purpose. He is working diligently to fix what, in his mind, is wrong here. As far as I’m concerned, the only thing wrong is Trudeau himself and everything he’s done over the last nine years.

SILENCE ISN’T GOLDEN

Re: KINSELLA: Mass murder, rape and Jew hatred must be condemned, Warren Kinsella column, May 4

I am fully onboard with Warren’s column. I am disgusted with our federal government’s position, which looks to me like it supports Hamas.

I fully support our Jewish communities across Canada and I apologize for how you are being treated by some Canadians attacking your synagogues, your schools, your businesses, the places you live, and now at Canadian universities.

The worst part of this is the silence and actions from our government leaders and our police. Thank you, my Jewish friends. Your contributions to our world in fields like medicine, science and humanity will never be forgotten.

RIGHTS ALL WRONG

I, for one, believe convicted criminals should lose their rights, but it seems governments go out of their way ensuring criminals’ rights are looked after while throwing victims under the bus.

I can’t wait for Canadians to throw this destructive, incompetent government under the bus, and don’t forget that the NDP have fed the fire along the way.
