Changing clocks is stupid
Changing our clocks in spring and fall is stupid. Twice a year, we have to change and monitor our clocks. It matters not what we system we adopt – mankind...
No country has gone back
It is not the NDP and Greens who want to hold on to power, but Mr. Wilkinson and his followers. They seem to think proportional representation will unleash a...

Time to get rid of ICBC
Every year, I get my renewal reminder from ICBC congratulating me on the $600-ish I've saved for being a safe driver. Yet, every year, my insurance is more...

Stay out of my bank account
I'm not a protester. I hate protesters. Well, I thought so until I heard about Stats Canada deciding to dig into our privacy like never before. They want to...
FPTP - more accountability
Is proportional representation inviting cronyism? After reading some thoughts from the 20th century philosopher Karl Popper on democracy and proportional...
Tired of all the theft
How much theft must we endure? My idea is to put a GPS tracker on everyone charged with theft for at least a year, five would be even better. When something...
How to fix Highway 97
Re: Highway 97 a crash magnet The reason for the high accident rate is clear. The congestion creates high anxiety in drivers. When a light turns yellow, those...
Say no to time change
The spring and fall time change has been an ongoing topic in B.C. for many years. There are pros and cons for both sides. I have heard it said that changing...
Avoid more NDP mistakes
With proportional representation, in 1991, the NDP and Mike Harcourt would not have formed the government. In 1996, Glen Clark and the NDP would not have been...
'Untruths, fear mongering'
As a previous member of the Citizens' Assembly on electoral reform in 2004, I am tired of the gross untruths and fear mongering being spread regarding the...
