VAX STATUS

Now that the anti-vaccine movement has helped create the latest measles outbreak in Canada, and the new policies being initiated by the Trump administration regarding vaccines, perhaps it is time that proof of vaccinations be considered a part of the admission process to enter Canada.

SO LONG JUSTIN

I can’t believe that Justin Trudeau would say that it’s been the honour of his life to serve Canada. The man for nine years has served himself with no regard to the damage he’s done to our great country. This goes to show that his narcissistic ego has no bounds. Scandal after scandal through the government and not once has he ever taken responsibility for any of it. His legacy should be remembered as the worst prime minister in history.

BOOZE TAX COSTLY

So, our liquor has been taken off your shelves. How will that help the consumer? Your liquor has an exorbitant taxation rate. Every type of rum, for instance, regardless of where it’s from, costs the same. Your taxation rate is ludicrous — especially on your own products. I can buy a 1.14-litre bottle of rum for $18 here. If you want to push “buy Canadian,” why not make your own products more affordable?

(That would be helpful, yes)

GOVERNOR OF CANADA

I find it disgraceful that our prime minister allows that immature, self-centred excuse for a president to call him “governor” without any comment or response. Canadians have a prime minister, not a governor.

TALK THEN ACT

President Trump delays tariffs after conferring with three big auto makers. Wouldn’t a responsible leader seek recommendations first before acting?
