Letters to the Editor, July 6, 2025: ‘Danielle Smith leading the way’

Article content

Smith for PM?

Article content

At this precarious point in Canadian history, the people must have their strongest leader to dethrone the rogue dictator Mark Carney and his Liberal puppets. There are no possible excuses for Pierre Poilievre leading his party from certain victory to defeat. He is simply not a strong leader, inspiring and uniting a nation to rise up. Canadians must now choose their strongest, most confident and courageous leader to do battle federally. Danielle Smith is this leader. There is no one else even in her league. At this time in history, Danielle Smith is the one whose time has come.

On guard

It’s a pity U.S. President Donald J. Trump didn’t call in the National Guard on Jan. 6 to quell the riots on the Capitol. Talk about throwing fuel on the fire in Los Angeles. Has the United States become a nation under the control of an orange dictator, as he suggested while running for office. Shame on him.

No peace with Hamas

Let’s get something straight: The only humanitarian crisis in Gaza is Hamas itself. Plenty of food, medical and other aid gets delivered to Gaza. The problem is Hamas steals it and sells it back to a captive and defenceless population at extortion prices. As all Marxists know, control food, be armed, and instill fear, and you have total power. Everyone knows this except for Democrats, the leftist U.S. media, and anti-Semitic/anti-Israel UN globalists. As long as Hamas remains — at all — there will never, ever be peace, let alone any chance for recovery or eventual prosperity. Iran’s Hamas proxy has to be eliminated. Completely gone and permanently so.

Show me

After reading “Remarks Called Divisive”, by Matthew Black, June 10, I got what I thought was a better feel for the pulse of Albertans. It seems three-quarters of the emails that Premier Smith received believed she was either using the fight with Ottawa to detract from issues in her government or was just plain unreasonable for not giving the new government in Ottawa a chance to turn the page. Lately, Premier Smith has been more conciliatory toward Ottawa. I would like to know how many of these emails were from supporters of the UCP vs the NDP.
That way I could put the objections to her May 5 media address into perspective. I, for one, don’t believe most Albertans would prefer to continue to prostrate themselves in reverence to a government that is a full word salad until they show concrete actions. Maybe Alberta is becoming the ‘Show Me’ province.
