Listed below are at this time’s Ottawa Solar letters to the editor.
SHOULD BE CONCERNED ABOUT KIDS
I discover it disturbing that individuals are so nonchalant about younger youngsters, underneath 10 years of age, contracting COVID-19, noting that signs are sometimes gentle.
Nonetheless, we have no idea as but what the long-term penalties for contaminated youths will probably be. The “residing loss of life” precipitated by broken organs, lungs, kidneys, and so on. could inhibit the lives of victims immeasurably. A lot for aspiring athletes, skilled, Olympic or leisure, or youth sports activities actions, not to mention with the ability to play softball in a single’s 70s.

BRAVE BUS DRIVER
I witnessed some idiots making an attempt to get on a bus with a protracted expired switch — two idiots, one switch.
The bus driver questioned them politely and their solutions didn’t add up. Since I used to be sitting there on the entrance, I might hear each phrase. He politely requested them to pay the fare. That’s when issues received a little bit ugly. They stated, “So we are able to’t get a free trip now?” The bus driver stated, “Please pay the $three.60 fare.” The 2 of them stood on the entrance after which backed down off the bus, at first muttering after which swearing on the bus driver.
Their cowardice was one thing, however the bus driver’s bravery was one thing else. I additionally seen that they swore most closely after they had been out of attain of this man.
Everybody in Ottawa ought to notice the stress on our bus drivers at the moment.

NO POLICE? PERFECT
At the very least 100 legislation enforcement companies have withdrawn agreements to ship personnel to subsequent month’s Democratic Nationwide Conference, a few of them citing orders to Milwaukee’s police chief to stop using tear fuel and pepper spray throughout demonstrations. What an exquisite alternative for the Democrats and different leftists to indicate the world they don’t want police to get pleasure from a peaceable, orderly occasion.
In spite of everything, the narrative pushed by the mainstream media is the looting and rioting in Democratic cities would stop if the imply police stood down. It’s the mere presence of police forces that turns these quiet, respectful, considerate protesters right into a rampaging mob.

TEACHING WRONG LESSONS
Had been the Kielburgers severe? It was apparent they had been coached by Butts and his crew. Simply blame another person, play dumb and hope all of it goes away. That is what WE, Trudeau et al are educating our younger individuals? Disgusting.
I pray laborious that our younger individuals, and particularly these being led by WE and their associates and companions, are good sufficient to see the reality and discover a higher solution to be concerned on the earth.
DONN HOPE
(Agreed.)
GET PRIORITIES STRAIGHT
WE-WE-WE all the way in which house.
We Canadians/politicians must give attention to COVID-19, not political points that don’t impression on restoration, help for many who are struggling and have suffered with this pandemic.
The precedence is COVID-19, not WE … give your heads a shake. Please!
