He hires his banker buddies (Defence Investment Agency CEO Doug Guzman), says one thing, then does the opposite, creates the problem, then comes in riding his white horse claiming to be the hero, and introduces bills that will strip you of your freedom of speech along with many other restrictions.<\/p>\n<p>Article content<\/p>\n<p>If we indeed end up with another election this year, I hope Canadians will do some research instead of blindly listening to the \u201corange man bad\u201d rhetoric. We need a government with some common sense and fiscal responsibility \u2014 something we haven\u2019t had for over 10 years.<\/p>\n<p>Time is running out to stop the downhill slide of this country, but it can still be done if voters use their heads. If you don\u2019t care about the effect it will have on you, then think about your kids and grandkids.<\/p>\n<p>SANDY JOHNSTON<\/p>\n<p>GREELY<\/p>\n<p>COME JOIN US, OTTAWA<\/p>\n<p>Alberta is so upset with the mismanagement of our energy sector by the federal government that we will be voting for separation. I understand that the people in Ottawa are also extremely upset with the poor and incompetent management of the transit system. In a show of unity, we will allow Ottawa to separate with us and join the Alberta Republic.<\/p>\n<p>CHRIS ROBERTSON<\/p>\n<p>STONY PLAIN, ALTA.<\/p>\n<p>HAVE YOUR SAY<\/p>\n<p data-async=\"\">Your letters are welcome, at:\u00a0<a data-evt-val=\"{\" control_fields=\"\" link=\"\" data-evt=\"click\" data-evt-typ=\"click\" href=\"mailto:OttSun.Oped@sunmedia.ca\">OttSun.Oped@sunmedia.ca<\/a>.\u00a0Include your first and last name\u00a0AND city\/town.
