Letters to the Editor: Carney and Leafs Needs

Going Without

I am very surprised to see negative stories about Mark Carney on mainstream media. I knew it would come, just didn't think it would be this quick. Canadian voters fell hook, line and sinker the last election because of Trump Derangement Syndrome. I'm very hopeful that a no confidence vote will be soon. Carney and his administration have destroyed what was left of Canada after Justin Trudeau. Carney's climate issues, green energy and Brookfield dreams are slowly dying. Canadians are starting to wake up. They were told to dislike the U.S. and Donald Trump, they don't know why, they just followed the lies. Trump bad, Carney good. At least Trump is doing something, what has Carney done in a year? Nothing! I'm a retired auto worker from Windsor, my private pension along with CPP/OAS run out before I run out of the month. For the past several months every pay cycle I go a week without. Now I go the last two weeks every month without.

(A vote of no confidence would go nowhere since the Liberals have a majority. Unless by some miracle a handful of Liberals who are upset with Carney for various reasons suddenly change their minds. The chances are slim to none.)

Leaf Dynamics

The Maple Leafs need two physical wingers who like to crash the net and a defenceman with a howitzer from the point. It would change the whole dynamic of the team, and yet they'll draft Gavin McKenna. The NFL gets it right — most teams draft according to their needs and quite often pass on a more talented player.

(A player with a winning attitude would be a good place to start.)
