    WHO IS BUYING LUNCH? Has anyone asked Olivia Chow how she intends to pay for lunches for the schoolchildren, who will distribute the food, how will she have a variety of nutritious food each day for Toronto’s diverse population and how will she address the many food allergies that are prevalent with children today? Chow is a misguided, incompetent fool. As Toronto burns, all she cares about is her political future. Wake up, Toronto, she does not deserve another term.

    A FRESH PLATFORM Re “Clinging to hope after Belleville, Ont., rocked by vicious storm of antisemitism (Talia Epstein, Sept. 22): The writer notes how antisemitism has become more rampant and easily manipulated through today’s media. Electronic and available to all without verification of accuracy of content. Rather than submitting to being the constant target, perhaps the Jewish diasporas should counter with their own social media platforms providing readers of such with verified updates on other issues in the world. Such as: Which entity attacked and pillaged what other innocent (or not) group they don’t like today? How much property did they destroy? How many people, including children, were murdered? How many thousands were displaced and how many billions of dollars will the United Nations go beggaring from the western democracies to support them since the dictatorship members don’t care and need their GDPs to subjugate their own populations? Accurate information might give the easily persuaded other things to think about.

    GAS GOUGING We do not depend on oil transported through the Strait of Hormuz. We have the third-largest oil reserves in the world. We supply 60 % of oil to the U.S. The countries with most oil reserves have gas prices well below $1 per litre. Even when the price of oil drops significantly, the gas prices do not drop accordingly. We ship our oil to the U.S. for refining and they ship it back to us. Why not refine it in Canada? Can someone please explain to us why our gas prices are so high? Why are we allowing gas gouging? Why such high taxation on gas, which is a necessity of life, especially diesel?

    OPERATING IN THE SHADOWS The Liberals are truly masters of deflection and unfortunately their political base is drinking the Kool-Aid. PM Mark Carney walked away from the tariff negotiations because the terms supposedly demanded by the U.S. negotiators undermined our sovereignty, language laws and restricted who we could trade with. When the Conservatives demanded to see the text of the negotiations, they were stonewalled and the documents were not produced. Why, if there was nothing to hide? To escape scrutiny, the Liberals then shifted their focus to the EU in pursuit of Carney’s sought-after Associate Membership status with the European Union. The terms of Canada’s membership obligations with the EU have not been presented. Both of these actions are politically motivated to create fear and enhance the Liberals as the stewards of Canadian values. Once again, vitriol, deflection and little background to support their actions. Shame on them.

    A DIFFERENT OUTCOME Imagine Donald Trump as the U.S. president at the time of the Second World War. Some of us have seen the Hitler parodies as he calls Trump on the phone, but seriously, how would the current president have acted? If his actions during his second term are any indication, it’s safe to say he’d have coddled up to Adolph Hitler and Benito Mussolini and claimed that Japan was ready to surrender long before the Manhattan Project was underway. If you think he would have acted in the same vein as FDR, consider today’s world, where Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was insulted in the White House and blamed for starting Russia’s invasion of Ukraine; Trump’s behaviour towards his NATO Allies including our Canada; how he has courted war criminals Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un, and the list goes on. Now he’d rather buy potash from Putin’s staunchest ally, Belarus. Yes, the Second World War would have taken a different and scarier course, had Trump been U.S. president.

    INTERNATIONAL FAME Every century or so, a leader emerges from the shadows; one with incredible skills and foresight and the ability to reshape the world we live in. Enter Prime Minister Mark Carney as he sets about creating a new world order. The world watches in awe as he magically begins to inspire world leaders everywhere as his new world order begins to take shape. How fortunate and proud Canadians are to see him on the world stage as he methodically goes about his work. Meanwhile, back at home, we have a country in crisis with record numbers lining up at food banks, record debt and problems on all fronts, such as health care and housing. Hopefully, when Emperor Carney comes home for a while, he can start to get our house in order.

    SOMETHING STINKS For the two companies, OpenAl and Anthropic, to sound the alarm that this could be Armageddon for the world if there isn’t government oversight and regulation is fearmongering and can equate to the disastrous handling of COVID and people not taking the jab. I smell a rat. It becomes a political football and a rat in the form of dark money rears its ugly head. The Democrats are jumping on the bandwagon, making this their big bad boogieman … don’t wait for this to destroy our sanity.

    HE DIDN’T ASK The conduct of Prime Minister Mark Carney in seeking closer ties with the EU is undemocratic, dishonest, and disrespectful to the Canadian people. Prime Minister Carney does not have the mandate to do this. The prime minister should respect the dignity and sovereignty of the Canadian people and put the question of pivoting away from America to a referendum on a detailed proposal of the new plan for Canada. We, the Canadian people, want to be a nation, not an EU member in any shape or form!

    SCARING THE AI OUT OF US Just a thought from an average guy. Is there any chance that the AI executives and so-called experts who are trying to scare all of us by saying that AI may take over the world and kill off the human race in the near future are related to the people from the ’70s who told us that the world was running out of oil to drive up prices, or that the world might end when all computers would quit at the turn of the century and nothing happened. Former vice president Al Gore told us we would all be under water by now from the glaciers melting and yes there is global warming, but the oceans aren’t that much higher. Roy Foster Kendal, Ont.

    REMEMBER WHERE YOU WERE Re “What CBC Journalist Standards’ boss doesn’t know about 9/11” Brad Hunter, Sept. 11): Like everyone from that day, I know exactly, to the minute, where I was and what I was doing when the first plane hit the Twin Towers. It was a stunning day, sunshine spilling through the trees and onto the roads. I was just about home from dropping my kids at school when I heard about the second plane, leaving no doubt in anyone’s mind it was a calculated terror attack. Terror, both large and small, had crossed everyone’s doorstep and border. We must never forget that in a free country, if you attack one of us, you attack all of us. Canada and the U.S. must restore our relationship. This day says it stronger than any other.

    GIVE THE JOB TO BOMBARDIER As President Donald Trump threatens to ban Bombardier from U.S. sales, coincidentally with the retirement of the Snowbirds aircraft, perhaps Prime Minister Mark Carney, rather than using multi-millions of Canadian taxpayer dollars to pad his welcome back to his chosen home in Switzerland when he is finished here by purchasing outdated propeller-powered copies of a Second World War fighter plane to supposedly replace the current jet-powered Snowbird fleet, could consider boosting Canadian manufacturing and jobs. This could be done by cancelling any further negotiations with the Swiss firm, spending those millions in Canada and contracting with Bombardier to build a genuine, modern air force two-seat, jet-powered trainer, which will give the Snowbirds a real aircraft to fly (should we ever see them again) and provide practical training use for CAF as well.

    EVIL FORCES ARE GATHERING While the current U.S. administration is in the business of fracturing longtime alliances with the UK and Europe and badgering Canada, the new Axis of Evil is not sitting idle. Putin, Xi Jinping and Modi, major participants of the 10-member SCO, have been planning and the Russian leader met with his Iranian counterpart recently. Under Trump, the U.S. may want to go it alone and “be great again,” but those days of isolation are long gone in this modern era. They need to wake up and recognize their friends and not coddle their enemies.

    ADULT IN THE ROOM Re “Turning off the noise” (Warren Kinsella, Sept. 6): When one kid yells: “Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah,” another kid echoes the phrase. They may tire of the game. Or it escalates to brandishing sticks or tossing stones. Adults know the risk. We don’t retaliate. Donald Trump’s tariffs harm the American people. Trump uses the tariffs as negotiating leverage. He taunts us to respond because he knows we will lose. He also uses tariffs to repatriate business stateside. That results in a higher cost of goods for American consumers. An adult is not fooled by adolescent behaviour.

    CANADA CAN DO IT ALL Donald Trump doesn’t need Canada. The irony is Canada doesn’t need America. We are one of only two countries in the world that has everything. We have endless energy (oil, gas, uranium for nukes), agriculture, potash, enough land to feed most of the world, an alumina deposit to last 2,000 years, all minerals found on earth, a boreal forest (lumber) so large that it is half the size of the U.S. The talent, skill and ingenuity to manufacture everything we want.
