Meanwhile, road rehabilitation in and around St. Thomas has been going for some time now.
Billions of taxpayers’ money is being wasted all across Canada for climate change that’s been happening for thousands of years.
The federal government’s electric-vehicle mandate will never fly by 2035. There is no infrastructure to support this. What happens when you try to charge millions of vehicles at the same time?

Save pollinators
We owe our life to pollinators.
We can’t produce the food we need to survive without the help of our bee populations and the all other insects that facilitate pollination.
Before we winterize our gardens, we should plant more native plants that support pollinators.
We should focus on endangered or at-risk species that matter to the environment. Here’s a list of some that matter to our area:
- Karner blue butterfly;
- Ottoe skipper butterfly;
- and Monarch butterfly.
Let’s focus on planting more of their host plants so we can increase their populations.

Do it for Charles
King Charles is facing the fight of his life with pancreatic cancer and an uncertain future, wishing only that his sons, William and Harry, reconcile their differences.
King Charles has shown himself to be a brave man, fulfilling his duties as King of the Commonwealth while receiving pancreatic cancer treatment that has a very low success rate.
I pray his sons will embrace each other with love, if only for the sake of Charles, who deserves no less.

Close zoo
I cannot believe Marineland is still allowed to keep animals in its care.
When will the government step in to rehome all these animals and finally shut down this business? No one loves Marineland, especially not its residents.

Dead man voting
Regarding the article Readers react to study of after-death contact (Aug. 29).
I have been an election scrutineer and heard this story: A man died shortly before an election and his name was still on the voters’ list. Another man impersonated him to vote. He was caught because the dead man’s son was the scrutineer. The young man leapt from his chair, ran to the impostor, threw his arms around him, and yelled, “Father, You’re back.”
