Disappointed
I am totally dissappointed at Central Frontenac Township’s disrregard for the beauty and health of our area. After over 10 years of effort by concerned landowners in regard to septic inspection, the program (according to The Frontenac News) is going back to committee! What has to be done to get… READ MORE
How does he know why people serve our country?
As a retired military person. I find it sick for someone to use the service of people in the military to support their deep-rooted homophobia/transphobia or dislike for something they do not understand. It is one thing to point something that they dislike but it is another thing to call… READ MORE
Appalled that letter was published
This letter was brought to my attention by a friend who is in the delivery zone for the Frontenac news. I live in Kingston. I am appalled that you published this letter. I support free speech, but not hate, and this is much more about hate than anything else. Michelle… READ MORE
Media outlets should be held accountable
I am writing in response to the letter that was published last week, denouncing a rainbow Canadian flag being flown at a nearby school. I am one of many LGBTQ+ folks who are proud to call Frontenac County home. The local LGBTQ+ folks I know work in retail, education, healthcare,… READ MORE
Re – Wrong side of history
I'm concerned that a homophobic letter to the editor would be considered for publishing. I am aware that opinions expressed by readers don't reflect the opinions of the publication, but the letter you published by a David Whalen is clearly hurtful to a portion of the community, and was published… READ MORE
Re: the wrong side of history
In the 100 years it took to reach Canada's current flag design, the one continuous element was the maple leaf, which was chosen to represent Canada's national identity. In the words of Prime Minister Pearson who oversaw the flag's design, it represents those "who remain united in freedom and justice… READ MORE
Respect the Flag
On Sat I was at the school to get a flu shot, when I noticed a Canadian flag which was modified to have the gay pride flag attached to it. This is totally disrespectful to our nation. There is a gay pride flag which can be shown on its own.… READ MORE

The article reported that Rural Frontenac Community Services Youth Program services “10-17 youth in… READ MORE
Don't We Elect Prime Ministers For a Four Year Term?
Seems to me that when an election is held every 4 years, the expectation is that the ruling party will do the best that they can, to serve their constituents, during their allotted time in office. We should put an end to the possibility of having an election before the… READ MORE
Who Said That?
Someone said that our fundamental role as members of society is to be consumers. Who could possibly have said that? An economist? A spokesperson for big industry or big business? A retailers’ representative? An equally valid statement could be: our fundamental role as members of society is to care… READ MORE
A letter from a concerned very senior citizen
It is seldom that I get riled up and feel I have to express my thoughts. Somehow I got on to Randy Hillier's NO REPLY newsletter. I continued to read it because I like to try to understand those with whom I disagree. But this time he crossed a line. … READ MORE
Vaccinations
Maybe I should have written this letter prior to the election, but I really don’t presume I would have any influence on voters. Although I’ve never been a party loyalist, I would like to take this opportunity to “protest” Randy, Mad Max, Derek and their entourages. I would say my… READ MORE
Un-vaxed should lose out in triage
We are moving into a period with our healthcare that will remind many around my age of the program MASH, unfortunately with none of the comedy. We are in a situation that will force doctors, hospitals, and provinces to literally decide who will live and who will die. As the… READ MORE
Caretaking
The term ‘Caretaker Government’ being bandied about by the media and well fuelled by some party leaders is an insult to our system of government, our military and our civil service. Our elected leaders do control the military and diplomatic purse-strings but none of them - even if they… READ MORE

In response to North Frontenac Mayor Ron Higgins and his dropping out of the Local MPP Race, and his potential of running for a third term as Mayor. I have some comments, as a local resident and business owner. On August 15th, Council is meeting to vote on a motion… READ MORE
Leftist Dogma
I hope you learn I only make decisions based on common sense and truth. Wrong decisions will turn around and benefit or damage the decision maker depending on whether they were right or wrong choices. The link above is from the PRO JAB CDC director in case you think the source… READ MORE
