CANADA, WHAT A JOKE
Liberals have made Canada a joke internationally for years. Canadians have now proven it true by allowing Donald Trump to decide who became our prime minister. Trump knew exactly what he was doing when he challenged Canadians with his rhetoric. How easily Canadian Liberals panicked. Then Trump on election day mentions the 51st state crap again. Trying to push the Liberals into a majority. Our European and Asian allies will shake their heads at Canada and buy their energy from the U.S and Middle East. Sad.

RULE CHANGE
Re “Organ recipients push Ontario government to change donation rules” (The Canadian Press, May 4): While I support the need for organ donors, I do not support the idea of having to opt out of it rather than declaring your wishes to do so. It is a slippery slope to go down. If you simply forget to opt out, you are on the hook. Sorry, no. Like I said, I feel for people who need donations but tragedy and hardships are part of life.

ALBERTA’S REVENGE
Revenge is a dish best served cold. Alberta has coordinated world events to exact its revenge on Canada. The Edmonton Oilers in 2025 will win the Stanley Cup, seeming to end the 32-year drought of a Canadian team winning a Cup, and just when Canada thinks the drought is over, then Alberta separates to snatch the Cup away from Canada. Slide trombone please!

CHOW IS A JOKE
Olivia Chow is a colossal embarrassment as mayor of Toronto. If you aren’t part of a special interest group, sorry to say you don’t count. Maybe she should cut the dancing and read the report that says housing starts are down.
