READER COMMENTS Re: ‘ Remembrance tribute for beloved community member to be held in Truro’ “Thanks to the organizers of this tribute to a wonderful lady. I have had many joyful vacations with Vivie. So sorry that I cannot attend her memorial as I am out of the country. Would love to have heard all the deserving tributes. Again, thanks!” – Doris Knight Re: ‘ Tatamagouche brewery to open soon’ “It’s wonderful to have people in your community who never stop trying to better the area in terms of a place to live as well as a place to visit. I will definitely check the Jost’s new establishment out. Looking forward to it!” – Anita MacLellan Re: ‘ Halifax baby starts breathing again after being declared legally dead’ “Such a beautiful outcome for what surely would have been the worse tragedy of this woman’s life. The medical reasoning behind it will be interesting to hear. And while I have a faith, I don’t have one that believes in a God that would choose some babies to survive and some to die. I see why people attribute a miracle in such a way but they don’t stop to think of what they are saying and the hurtfulness it causes others whose loved one has died. Truly a miracle but not one of a God who handpicks survivors as if they are more worthy over those who die. One can have faith, be thankful and love without such harsh ideas. What kind of God would that be?” – MCRB Re: ‘ Flash freeze warning in effect for Colchester County’ “Let me clear something up for you that most people who dismiss global warming don’t seem to understand. It’s not necessarily warmer weather that global warming is causing, it’s extremes of weather, which can be either hot or cold. So just because we’ve had a particularly cold winter doesn’t mean global warming is a myth. January was the 4th warmest January since 1980, globally speaking. People need to educate themselves, but they won’t. They’ll see a snowstorm and use that as their evidence against global warming. Sad, but true.” – RegReader Re: ‘ Uplifting adventure created lasting memories’ “Thank you to Herb for telling me to watch for this article! Herb Peppard is one of my favourite people. Couldn’t ask to ever meet a kinder, sweeter man. Awesome stories told from the heart.” – Wanda Mosher
