  • Ticked Off and Tickled Pink May 10
    I agree, we need a new Arena ASAP. So many people have no clue as to the benefits it will bring to this City. Haters will always hate. More...

  • Ticked Off and Tickled Pink May 10
    Give me a break already. Besides the trailer courts that are full of Newfies and Ontarians, Medicine Hat is mostly made up of Albertans. More...

  • Execution of layoffs 'heartless'
    That is SOP for most companies now when they let people go. It may seem heartless but the reasoning is that the employees who are let got could go around bad mouthing the company or sabotaging work. A lot of times they will not even let you pack our ... More...

  • Ticked Off and Tickled Pink May 10
    Yes, it was a time of joblessness and despair, but Ontario and Quebec, because of their job diversity were in much better shape than all other provinces. Their per capita income had droped by %40 compared with Alberta and Saskatchewan, which had drop... More...

  • Better plan led to Tories winning election
    The Heritage Savings Fund name was changed by the PC gov to the Sustainability fund to make it seem like they weren't taking from a savings account. We are not that stupid Jim. At home if you take from your savings account are you not spending more t... More...

  • Ticked Off and Tickled Pink May 10
    The time I was referring to was not full of industry, it was full of joblessness and despair. Building the Gardens at the time brought positivity to the area and helped people get out and do something. More...

    You guys are all excuse makers. Did I once say it had to all be public money though? If enough people want it there is a way. I used that as an example of people getting work done when times are tough. If we always used the excuse of times are tough ... More...

  • Entitlement the order of the day for departing politicians
    Partisanship aside, this situation is absolutely obscene. More...

  • Standing the test of time
    The city spent the money on Christmas lights at a time when they were also jacking up utility rates for no reason other than "that's what the rest of the province is paying" I also don't think I know of anyone who complained about the restoration of... More...

  • Standing the test of time
    I agree with most of what you say. I'm not sure "everything" is built poorly these days, but I do understand your point. While many structures were built to a higher spec in the past...there are many of them that are falling down as well. I don't agr... More...

  • Bang on with analysis of royalties
    It is increasing difficult to be optimistic about the current direction of our governments when we are being dragged down so many slippery slopes with the left's ideology. This blissful ignorance from the lefties is really getting tiresome. More...

    David Condon is the "heir apparent" to Dennis Perrier. More...

  • Better plan led to Tories winning election
    Mr. Taylor, as a graduate summa cum laude of the Lougheed School of Economics has a firm grounding in PC accouting practises. In the real world, when revenues fall short of expenitures, that is a deficit. In her budget, as tabled, Ms. Redford posted ... More...

    Toronto was a city of industry and size. Medicine Hat, well you know the answer to that. To compare Toronto to Medicine Hat is like comparing apples to oranges. More...

  • Better plan led to Tories winning election
    Jim, I am going to give you a little reality check. The PC's won on "the devil you know, is better the one you don't know campaign". It is truly sad, they did win! After four years with Redford, Stelmach will look like a great leader. Redford has alr... More...

    Maple Leaf Gardens was built with private money. The planned Events Centre, in our community, will be built, almost entirely with public money. More...

  • Better plan led to Tories winning election
    Jim Taylor is a real good cheerleader for the Progressive Conservative Party. His long-time loyalty to the party must be really appreciated by the elite membership. Taylor implies, however, that any citizen, who voted for the Wildrose, must be kind o... More...

  • Council looks at $2.5M lighting upgrade downtown
    Honestly, how many people are going to shop downtown in the evening? This is an area of too many run down buildings. It is a vacuum that is sucking away taxpayer dollars on a dream that has existed for at least 30 years. Wake up council and review th... More...

    Maple leaf gardens was built in the great depression. Where there is a will there is a way. We do need one, whether or not its before we lose our team and biggest renter is the question. Maybe one day we will have a council member or mayor who really... More...

  • Around Alberta: The polls were accurate
    When speaking of crockery, fractured or not, one can look no farther than the PC regime. This regime is founded on lies, corruption, deception and intimidation. The people that reside in the rural areas of Southern Alberta including the city of Medic... More...

  • Ticked Off and Tickled Pink May 10
    I agree we could use a new arena at some point but not in this economy. I remember hearing the same comments when we built the Esplanade, I don't see where the downtown has growen because of it or our economy. I certainly know my family can't afford ... More...

    It could have easily been another member of the church. Simply attending church every Sunday makes you about as much of a"good" person as standing in a garage makes you a car. More...

    The reference to white trash was a comment made about bingo players. Who cares how anyone gets their entertainment as long as it's not at someone else's expense. To each his own. More...

    A Politicians promise is like a Penny. Useless and about to be melted down. More...

  • Around Alberta: The polls were accurate
    forget the poles. Wildrose were lucky, in that they got the protest votes from the disgruntled south. We are lucky not all Albertan's had to deal with a flood and a disgraceful Disaster recovery program. Or your bunch of crackpots may have won. More...

  • Granny greeted with vulgarity; how could someone be so rude?
    110% agreed on the no one having to endure. I will add though that the unsolicited & copious phone calls that seemed to run from the moment of election announcement to voting day could also contribute to one snapping shall we say. More...

    I don't think he is waiting... I could be wrong but I think he is frequently out of town on other business. More...

  • Ticked Off and Tickled Pink May 10
    I don't know who called who "white trash", but if we all had to go back to our "own" provinces or countries, there would be very few people living in Medicine Had, or Alberta. I think I have been living in Alberta to consider myself as much an Albert... More...
