Letter to the Editor

'On April 1 I had an unfortunate fall at Ricky's All Day Grill in St. Albert.'

'You made my day, and I don’t think I’ll ever forget your song.'

'The City should be taking the steps to ensure that all people, whether rich, with middle income, or poor, are treated fairly and equally.'

'Please, if anyone knows the reasons for this utter destruction, let us know.'

'For the prime minister, a price on carbon doesn’t register on his financials. For most of us, his increase in our cost of living does affect the way we manage our needs and our wants.'

'My first impressions as I passed through the gate were of surprise and confusion. Confusion because what I was greeted with was not a beautiful natural preserve, nor an old forest, or even the delicately landscaped sanctuary I had been told to expect. As a professional arborist and passionate nature enthusiast, what I saw was more or less a neglected parking lot.'

'It would be nice if the market was moved from downtown. ... I’d love to shop downtown if there were more retail spaces at ground level, too.'

'The St. A square looks great online, but the way it looks today is years away from that becoming a reality, if ever, not to mention the inherent danger of expensive cranes and lifts raised into the air — an accident literally waiting to happen.'

'Children on crosswalk patrol are better educated on the issue, and always wait for cars to stop completely before allowing pedestrian traffic. Ironically, they are models for many adults.'

Having thousands of cars needlessly idling away hour after hour and day after day for no reason is shameful for a city which lists, as its sixth priority: “Environmental Stewardship: Explore innovative environmental and conservation opportunities.”
