Grazie (thank you) Italy for the Milano-Cortina 2026 Olympic games in a backdrop of quaint towns nestled between wondrous mountains where world athletes compete in figure skating, ice hockey, curling, cross-country skiing, speed skating, ski halfpipe, etc. They push their bodies to the highest level, hoping to win a gold medal, but the smallest of imperfections in a performance or being a second behind a competitor’s time can result in their dream being crushed. However, the reality is they’re all winners.

Disgusting comment
Rick Bell deserves much credit for calling out Rachel Notley and Thomas Lukaszuk in the Feb. 21 Calgary Sun (‘Notley, Lukaszuk should be denounced,’ Sun, Feb. 21) for comparing Danielle Smith and her UCP government to Nazis. I have a tough time imagining what Rachel and Thomas are thinking. They remind me of a pair of 10-year-olds in a schoolyard calling another kid the worst possible disgusting names they can dream up. Maturity and common sense appears to have abandoned both of them. Calling anyone something so outrageously false is beneath most responsible adults. To think that these are people once elected to high office, makes their comments even more unbelievable.

Immigration problem
Thank you, Premier Smith, for addressing issues that exist with current immigration. I support everything you say 100%. Anyone who says immigration is not a problem then I suggest you go to any mall in Calgary and look around; go to any school and look around; go to any hospital and look around; go to any lab and look around; go to City Hall and look around; the next time you take the C-Train or city bus look around. When you attend the Calgary Stampede, look around. When you go to any free celebration in Calgary look around. Then tell me that immigration is not a problem.

(Immigration numbers need to be set responsibly, but not sure ‘there are way too many people who don’t look like me’ is the way to go about it)
Waiting on fallout
Andrew’s arrest shows no-one is above the law in the U.K., but the same is not necessarily true in America. One cannot be protected by family connections or status in the U.K., but one can be protected by a very tolerant or biased Department of Justice in America. No male of any nationality has been charged in America with sexual offences or other illegal activities even though most of the crime doubtless occurred there. Some of the names blacked out in the Epstein files appear to be friends of Epstein rather than victims. I hope they are blacked out because they are undergoing active investigation rather than to protect their reputations.
BRUCE COUCHMAN, Toronto
(One would hope an investigation is ongoing)
