Ticked Off

That some people are averse to vaccinatio­ns like measles and COVID-19 which have proven to be very effective, have saved thousands of lives and have few side affects. They then smoke, drink, take Tylenol and other over the counter drugs which have a lot of side affects. Get you and your children vaccinated.

Tickled Pink

Good weather brings out loud motors run by juvenile minded males. Ask any female if she appreciate­s them. The answer will be no. A motor that runs smooth and quiet sounds rich and that it is run by a mature person. Think about it.

Ticked Off

Utilities seem to be a really hot item and I dislike the cost as much as anyone but have you compared costs in other cities and other provinces to what we pay? I have and we are slightly better than most.

Tickled Pink

I love the start of Daylight Savings Time! Sure, I missed that extra hour of sleep this morning, but I will adapt and I’ll get it back later this fall. For now I can enjoy the extra hour of daylight every day after supper.

Ticked Off

At the silence of our local MP over the relocation of the SALH that has served us for more than 100 years! Does he even know, or care? What does he do for us anyway?

Tickled Pink

Tickled Pink by Nancy at The Bay for all of her help on Saturday. She definitely went above and beyond what would be expected, thank you.

Ticked Off

Bought a “foot-long” sandwich at the local chain and the meat was sliced so thin, it only had one side. It’s like the server was counting the extras I asked for, and actually took some off

and put them back in the tray. I understand things are tough, but at least make the food enjoyable. I think I’ll look for another food option.

I think the owner at FreshCo is doing amazing and the way her husband supports her, I’ve only shopped there twice, but I will definitely shop there more Hats off for your hard work.

Ticked Off

I do believe that our MP has been a waste of money. What has he done? Nothing.

Tickled Pink

Pleased to see a 22-year-old Nova Scotia man was charged for allegedly starting NS’s largest-ever wildfire that burned for one month last summer. This crime should be an automatic 25 years in the clink.

Ticked Off

I’m ticked off at our city council. Most are there just for the lime light and money, rubber stamping everything the city manager puts in front of them. The only one that really cares and stands up for the citizens is the mayor.

The City Electrical

Department does a fabulous job. Going far beyond what is required and are extremely helpful.

Ticked Off

The upcoming Traveling gold and silver buyers that will be coming to our town are noted for only paying a fraction of what they should.

Know the price of what you are selling before you attend there show. There are local people in this city who will pay far more than what they offer. These traveling company’s are from Ontario and Quebec. At the least support Alberta.

Tickled Pink

Proud of the brave group that protested against the UCP antitrans policies last weekend. Thank you for standing in the cold to show the LGBTQ+ community that they are supported in this city. To the person ticked off by it and telling them to protest at Danielle Smith’s office, City Hall is a public space on a highly visible intersecti­on. Look, it worked! They got your attention which is exactly what they wanted to do. Be seen.

Tickled Pink

I have very recently moved back to The Hat after 12 years elsewhere in other places. This place is better than ever and I feel like we’ve won the lottery. With the overall cost of living here as opposed to other places. People, stop whining, you have to experience other areas to know this city is great.

Ticked Off

Interestin­g to see Coalspur Mining has started constructi­on near Hinton without the necessary permits. But hey, this is Alberta where money is more important than the environmen­t.

Tickled Pink the Premier announced the twinning of Highway 3 from Burdett to Taber. Oh wait, didn’t the UCP party announce that about four or five years ago and reannounce­d it over and over like it is new news? I’m glad they are doing it but quit announcing it like it is new news.

Ticked Off

I wish Danielle Smith would read all the Ticked Off posts written about her instead of flapping her gums. She is a liar and a self serving women who cares only for herself.

Tickled Pink with the man in Germany that received 217 COVID-19 vaccinatio­ns and allowed researcher­s to assess and do tests on him. He did not die, get blood clots or have any other side effects. Nor did he contract the virus. The 217 microchips must have made it easy to find him.

Tickled Pink

Very happy to see the city allowing for more high/medium density developmen­ts. The developmen­ts in the Harlow should be the first of many approved. These offer a place for young people, seniors, people with disabiliti­es and anyone who doesn’t want a single family home to purchase property, all while exponentia­lly growing the tax base.
