The citizens of this province who pay the government workers wages should demand a third-party investigat­ion into the possible wrong doing or abuse on how bonuses are paid out to AHS employees. There continues to be abuse in the AHS system.

We all know people, family or friends who lost jobs or their businesses due to two years of COVID. How can the top doctor receive $228K in bonuses during this time? With this bonus her wage was almost $600K. She needs to address the people and explain to everybody why she deserved this money.

My friend locked her keys in her car along with her purse. A gentleman saw her distress and not only made a call to get help but stayed with her until he got someone to open the door and she was able to head for home.

This showed there are still good people who are willing to give of their time to help others.

Apparently the firefighte­rs were without a contract for over three years and now they have agreed to a new contract that expires at the end of December of 2022 and then they have to start negotiatin­g all over again. Why would they not have negotiated so that they have a contract that includes the next two or three years instead?

What is happening to Medicine Hat’s home owners? So many yards left to go to weeds! If you don’t want to water at least keep the weeds mowed so they don’t go to seed and infest the neighbors property. Why do you have a house if you don’t want a yard? Your selfishnes­s brings down the whole neighborho­od.

Ticked off that some constructi­on yards do not have to do dust control. Oil patch constructi­on had to be watered down in rural areas but they don’t have to in the city.

Ticked Off

That some people don’t pick up after their dogs on trails and around the city. Perhaps they shouldn’t own a dog if they are not considerat­e of other people?

Nice to see the tin cans across from City Hall getting zero use, what a waste of our money.
