THE JOKE IS ON US
I have just been reading the April 24 edition of the Sun, I can’t stop laughing. On the front page “Burnt out” and Michele Mandel’s column, “Judge sounds off.” This judge is really showing them, wow, he really sent a strong message — a conditional sentence for arson and fraud over $5,000. What a joke. I’ll bet the rest of the accused persons are also laughing their heads off.

FORD’S APOLOGY NOT ENOUGH
I appreciate Doug Ford offering an apology to the people of Ontario for his overreach in trying to control the virus, and I accept it. However, I will not vote for him in the next provincial election, nor anyone else either, for the simple reason they are all bent on destroying Ontario. Doug puts too much confidence in his panel of doctors, and Liberal Leader Steven Del Duca and NDP Leader Andrea Horwath want to bulldoze every restaurant and small business to put everyone on universal basic income. The vaccine rollout is a farce, still putting priority on seniors who don’t leave the house rather than prioritizing warehouse and factory workers. We can’t stay inside, but we can’t go outside. Doug, a piece of advice: Open up the province, and let people live. It’s time to admit this thing is bigger than we are, and no matter what we do or don’t do, it’s going to spread. We are not irresponsible twits who go out of our way to break the rules. We just want to live our lives. Please, stop acting like a Liberal and let us go.

HE’S STILL THE ONE
Am I disappointed in the way Premier Ford has mismanaged this pandemic, you betcha. A direct result of a) trying to team play with a prime minister who has no intention of reciprocating; b) placing faith, listening to others who have their own agendas, not necessarily those of the general population; c) trying to please a hostile, anti-Conservative media — don’t bother, a waste of time, energy. Shrug them off; d) Trying to be an “everyman,” an average Joe. You’re not, you’re the premier, act like it. Despite these lapses in judgment, he still has my full support. The alternative — a return to the Liberals, after 11 years of debt, mismanagement, led by a man who has no elected provincial seat, part of that same legacy. Or maybe the NDP — no solutions, only to sink us deeper into the spending spiral. The issues that face us in Ontario are directly related to how the Trudeau Liberals have totally failed us in our most critical hours, totally ignored by its cheerleading media.
