Letter to the Editor Editor, By way of introduction, my name is Ric Riordon. My wife Shirley and I have recently moved from Oakville, where a similar project was proposed a few years back in the face of much public concern, and thankfully rejected. As newcomers to the community, bringing our business here and making our home here, I wanted to...

Letter to the Editor Editor, More on the TC Energy proposal… Being 'green' is not just reducing our energy consumption but also being efficient with the energy we do use. There is only one real cost of electricity. The pricing with peak rates and off-peak rates is a fabrication of government and the electrical producers to misdirect us from the fact...

Letter to the Editor Editor, The bill Bill Walker is touting is disguised as a bill to ban UNDERCOVER CRUELTY VIDEOING. This cannot happen! Without these brave souls who document the intense cruelty happening 24/7 at the Factory Farms the public would have no idea what is going on to the chickens, dairy cows, pigs, etc.GIVE THE ANIMALS A BREAK! This bill...

Letter to the Editor Editor, TC Energy’s December 12th response to my previous call for 'Sensibility' regarding CO2 abatement programs is misleading and erroneous. This project will not “turn a 100% loss into a 75% gain”. We do not have to spend $3.3 billion to salvage electrical energy sold to the U.S. A sensible solution to energy surplus in Ontario would be...

Letter to the Editor Editor, I would like to start out by saying that I am a senior and therefor may need a little help in understanding complex issues like the benefits of pumped storage of electricity. However, as I read the response to an earlier letter, I could not help but come away with more questions than answers. If the issue...

Letter to the Editor Editor, On behalf of TC Energy and the proposed Pumped Storage Project, I’m writing in response to Mr. Carr’s letter to the Editor. First, I want to thank Stephen for his interest in the project and hope that he will be able to attend our first Community Information Session on December 11 to learn more about the proposal.Second,...

Letter to the Editor Editor, With due respect to the November 14th opinions Mr. Eric Brown and those of like mind express over the virtues of pumped energy storage as a means to reduce CO2 emissions, I believe we are in need of a 'reality check' on the basis of both physics and economics. Pumping water uphill and then extracting energy from...

Letter to the Editor Editor, This letter is in regards to the person who unbelievably phoned the police on a man who was busking outside of Bill's Valumart on the evening of Tuesday, November 26. What motivation could you possibly have for trying to stop a person from making a few dollars to feed himself and his dog? He was not blocking...

Letter to the Editor Dear Editor, Your editorial calling Councillor Greenfield a ‘conservative’ and a ‘dinosaur’ was meant to belittle him but failed. His questioning of a ‘crisis’ is a responsible position to take. Official government records are out there to help investigate claims of crisis, and we trust they are unprejudiced. World crop production is twice population rate; Canadian forest fires...
