Published in the Toronto Sun 16 June 2009 Attention, Michael Ignatieff: We do not need another election! Do you hear that?

Bring NHL to the Hammer
Published in the Toronto Sun 18 April 2009 Re: “it’s time for Toronto to have two NHL teams” (14 April): Has Michael Taube been sucking too much Zamboni exhaust? Two teams for Toronto?

Not always right to strike
Published in the Toronto Sun 4 February 2009 I appreciate that employees have the right to be treated fairly when in contract negotiations. Now that we finally have a resolution to the York University strike, we are faced with the possibility that the elementary teachers federation may strike. We don’t need another education strike. Teaching …

Freeze out the rich bureaucrats
February 2009 Re: Christina Blizzard’s “Freeze out rich bureaucrats” (Feb 1), one of the things that really stuck out for me was the paragraph….”government compares public sector salaries with the private sector to arrive at a reasonable level of compensation”.

Even in a recession there are still opportunities
February 2009 With Canada and much of the world in an economic recession, things can seem pretty bleak. For those who still have a job, the prospect of future job loss or pay-cuts are a constant fear.

TTC needs the police
February 2009 Re: Another TTC shooting (February 24), it’s high time Toronto Transit Commission Special Constables were given full police status and issued side-arms.

The right to quit
January 2009 Regarding Mireille Levesque’s letter, (The right to quit, 1 January 2009), I absolutely agree that American war resisters/deserters should have the right to quit the military.

SIU not so toothless
October 2008 As a serving police officer, I can tell you that even a “toothless SIU” still scares many police officers, especially the honest ones. Even though many of their staff are ex-cops, has no one heard on the Professional Standards Branch (Internal Affaris to American cop-show watchers). The job of these officers is …
