A huge jeers to the logging truck driver who was honking at my daughter while going through the hoodoo corners. The ‘L’ was displayed on the back and she was going 60 km/hr. Shame on you for making her feel uncomfortable while trying to learn. We all had to start somewhere!

Read More...Conservative MLAs not whipped
Dear Editor:
I read your editorial (“Candidates face a tough test,” from the April 26th edition of The Pioneer) on the tough test we face as candidates, and felt it important to address the issue you raise over “party” politics versus constituent needs.
Article 1.1.4 of the BC Conservative Policy states, “MLAs should be empowered to best represent the interests of their constituents”. Party leader John Cummins provided further support of that concept in the television debate, where he reaffirmed that a BC Conservative MLA would always be required to and expected …
Choose your airline wisely
Dear Editor:
Imagine an airline that attracts customers by plying you with a bag of cash as soon as you board the airplane. The whole cabin is first class, the best of everything: lavish meals, premium cocktails, in-flight entertainment and much more, all at coach rates!
Everything is going swimmingly until about an hour into your flight when you hear the announcement,“Thank you for choosing NDP airlines, we regret to inform you that we do not have enough fuel to get to our destination.” Nobody really cares. The man next to …

Read More...Dealing directly with deer
Dear Editor:
I read with interest in The Pioneer that Kimberley has rejected a deer hazing plan. I do not understand how anyone would expect to keep the deer out of town by hazing them, unless it was done on a daily basis, over and over again. I don’t think this is what they had in mind. I have chased, or hazed, if you like, hundreds of deer out of the yard. I don’t think they were all different deer, but were repeat offenders. I think we have approximately 12 deer …

to the part-timers or visitors to Radium who don’t respect the valley or its people enough to take their waste to the proper place. Leaving your garbage outside of our work along with bags of rotting produce is asking for trouble. If you can enjoy our home you should respect its residents, people and wildlife alike.
Read More...Reflection from a retired teacher
Dear Editor:
One hundred years from now it will not matter what kind of car I drove, what kind of house I lived in, how much I had in my bank account, nor what my clothes looked like. But the world may be a little better because I was important in the lives of the children I taught.
I was very blessed to be a teacher.
