The mayor and city council are considering raising homeowners’ taxes to 3.9% annually over the next four years. Now they have surplus money and are wondering what to do with it. Perhaps it would be a great idea to help taxpayers by reducing this tax increase. Thank you for putting the work in and not hurting the citizens of this city with more legislation. Tax increases hurt everyone.

what if?
I had seen Trudeau on the news testifying about the use of the Emergency Act. I wonder? What if he was canceling cross-border mask mandates? What if he didn’t turn his tail and claimed COVID and went into hiding? What if? Will downtown Ottawa be on lockdown for two weeks? Would the situation have become as dangerous as Trudeau claimed? I believe the drivers and supporters would have been home by Monday morning and Ottawa would have returned to business as usual.

phase out
Re: “COP27 deal delivers landmark outcome on ‘loss and damage’ but little else” (Reuters, 20 Nov): COP27 reaches landmark deal on loss and damage It’s not true that we achieved little else. Conference participants laid an important foundation for the next logical step in the fight against climate change: phasing out fossil fuels. Key representatives spoke loudly and clearly about the need for phasing out. The German Foreign Minister, the Marshall Islands Climate Envoy, India and other delegations all repeatedly called for a phase-out of fossil fuel production. What these celebrities understand is that the Loss and Damage Fund should logically reduce the substances responsible for all loss and damage: carbon dioxide and other earth-destroying gases. that it is necessary. This means we need to phase out fossil fuels to avoid all emissions, not just upstream emissions that occur within our borders. His COP27 representatives calling for phasing out are the vanguard of the movement and are not going anywhere. By this time next year, we will be talking about phasing out.
