To all those clutching their pearls over the grounding of the Snowbirds, stop. When was the last time you watched them or even thought about them? Canada Day? The last royal visit?

I want my tax dollars spent on tangible day-to-day things like education, permanent employment, housing, food insecurity, living costs, defence and climate change, to name a few.

It’s time to ground the Snowbirds permanently.

IF SNOWBIRDS WERE IN QUEBEC …

I’d bet the farm that, if the Snowbirds were based in Quebec, they wouldn’t be on the chopping block.

GLAD TO SEE GUILBEAULT GO

Good riddance, Steven Guilbeault, soooo happy to see the last of you and your radical policies that all but destroyed Canada’s economy and prosperity and set the stage for the debt-ridden and vulnerable position we find ourselves in today.

Don’t let the door hit you on your way out. Perhaps you can find another tower to climb.

GOOD IDEA SHOT DOWN

On May 27 in the House of Commons, the Liberals, NDP and the Bloc voted down the Conservative motion to cancel the carbon tax and clean fuel tax on gasoline and diesel until the end of the year.

Sure goes to show how much the Liberals think of you, and not one radio station or TV station is letting the people know that the Liberals don’t care about you. Tax, tax, tax.

You voted for them.
