June 2023 In what’s turning out to be the never-ending story, I recently filed a complaint with the Office of the Independent Police Review Director (OIPRD), due to the inaction of certain people, relating to a crime that was committed against me. Chief Robert Martin, chief of the West Grey Police Service, is refusing to …

Published in the Toronto Sun, 29 May 2023 Re: “Trudeau swerves again” (Brian Lilley, Toronto Sun, 27 May): Once again, the deal with Stellantis proves that the “green industry” runs on subsidies, not a viable, profit-oriented business model. In one sense, I can’t blame any business from trying to get what they can from governments, …

May 2023 Given the latest issues surrounding the trouble-plagued Eglington Crosstown LRT line, over-budget and years behind on its construction schedule, can someone remind me why it’s a good idea to build a dedicated LRT line, instead of dedicated bus lanes? The benefits of having lanes dedicated exclusively to transit vehicles are quite obvious, but …

May 2023 Repeat their names: Andrew Hong, Morgan Russell, Devon Northrup, Grzegorz Pierzchala, Maureen Breau, Travis Jordan, Brett Ryan, Shaelyn Yangm and Eric Mueller. Are you listening Justin Trudeau? Doug Ford? These are all the police officers killed across Canada since last September. While policing is an inherently dangerous profession, at what point do we …

Published in the Barrie Advance/Metroland Media, 28 April 2023 Re: Editorial cartoon for Simcoe.com, 27 April 2023: Your editorial comic in the 27 April edition does need some context.

April 2023 In speaking about electric vehicles to a young-looking cashier at my local grocery store, I was surprised to learn that she was not at all interested in owning one herself. I thought the younger generation were all on board with “saving the planet,” having been told for years by Al Gore and Greta …

April 2023 I’m frankly confused why jurisdictions like Toronto, and Ontario in general, complain about a lack of affordable housing. In many cities across Ontario, there are numerous empty, or underused, municipal and provincially-owned buildings that could easily be converted into affordable housing. Municipalities and provincial ministries that have inherited housing from closed from closed …

April 2023 While I would never accuse Doug Ford of being an environmental zealot like Steven Gilbeault, the insistence that by pulling “…critical minerals out of the ground to put in the EV vehicles and the batteries to make sure we take cars off the road,” doesn’t really make a lot of environmental sense when …
