Jeff Green’s recent piece on the Crown reflects the feelings of a number of people, but I would like to offer another perspective. In 1774, the First Continental Congress convened in Philadelphia. Among the delegates were well-known names, like George Washington and John Adams. This first meeting proposed a boycott… READ MORE

I applaud you for the above article for my own personal reasons.  I am Irish born and as such can never support a Monarchy who for 800 years ruled my country with brutality and starvation.  Will I ever get to see a united Ireland of 32 not 26 + 6… READ MORE

I want to speak from the heart today, because I’ve been holding in a lot.   I have a lot to say about Pride — not the hashtags, not the brands changing their logos, not the party version that gets passed around online — but the real Pride. The one… READ MORE

I regret my earlier, naive suggestion that Canadians present Trump with a beautifully gift wrapped case of maple syrup to move him to drop his tariff and other schemes directed toward Canada. How was anyone to know that minimum incentives/ bribes start with the “donation” of a shiny jumbo jet… READ MORE

We are so fortunate that Councillor John Inglis had the insight to research and push for the installation of an Electric Vehicle Charging station in this area. His perseverance on this quest landed a huge win for North Frontenac residents and for anyone travelling through our area. Any cottage owners… READ MORE

My wife and I returned from away late March. As we bounced along the 509 from Hwy 7 to Snow Road towing our 5th wheel, I noted how lovely the highly vaunted improvements to the K&P Trail look. I was subsequently informed that there is now a $150 seasonal permit… READ MORE

It is disturbing to read all the anti-American hostility being expressed in so much Canadian media, largely because the anger and mistrust is misplaced—and hurtful and insulting to most Americans who have long respected their Canadian neighbors, friends and partners. If Canada would just send to Trump a case of… READ MORE

I’ve just read the article in the May 1st edition of Frontenac News regarding the results of the Federal Election in our riding (Liberals Gain in Lanark Frontenac, but Scott Reid Rolls to Victory). I take exception to Scott Reid’s statement, “There are people who are focused on insurance and… READ MORE

On May 10, 1940 Germany declared war on the Netherlands. May 5, 1945 the Netherlands was liberated. German forces surrendered to Canadian lieutenant General Charles Faulkes. 80 yrs ago! Not many liberators are still alive that were there and remember. But, memories have been passed along! I was born in… READ MORE

It is Sunday, the day before the election that some of the press continues to repeat is “the most important in our history”.  About a week ago I scribbled down two pages of notes, primarily to explain why I would not be voting in this election.  I thought about typing… READ MORE

This week, I went to the advanced polls in Lanark–Frontenac to cast my vote—and left the booth feeling like my voice didn’t matter. As I sat there, staring at the ballot, I saw the usual four choices: the Green, the Red, the Blue, and the Orange. I saw Michelle Foxton… READ MORE

I am writing this letter as a follow-up to the recent story in the Frontenac News about the Israeli draft resisters who were on a speaking tour across Canada. I am Jewish and my extended family was murdered by the Nazis. I am very worried about the Palestinians who, in… READ MORE

This election is a fight for Canada’s survival against a USA take over. I believe that Pierre Poilievre is  an open door to Canada for Trump. I know-- Poilievre has told Trump that Canada will never join the US, and to back off on tariffs, right? Despite his recent words,… READ MORE

The importance of the impending federal election cannot be overstated. It is not an exaggeration to say that Canada is in the worst Liberal-induced crisis since we declared our independence in 1867. Up until a few short weeks ago, Canadians recognized that the last 10 years of inept Liberal mismanagement… READ MORE

I found out recently that South Frontenac farms out bylaw enforcement to a private contractor. They are given the powers of the township for the ability to carry out their contract. It seems to me that this arrangement discourages the diffusing of a neighborhood conflict and neighborly dealings with complaints… READ MORE

For years, Scott Reid has been a familiar name in our riding. As a long-time incumbent, he has enjoyed the support of voters who, election after election, have put their votes in his favour. The CPC has designated our riding as a so called “safe seat” for them. Is that… READ MORE
