I strongly believe every family should own a pet. It teaches kids responsibility, pets help relieve stress and pets can help promote exercise. Most Canadian households own at least one type of pet. Having a pet teaches kids responsibility such as providing them with food and water at least twice a day. Pets also help […]
People who are espousing the use of systemic insecticide to combat the coconut rhinoceros beetle should be aware such a tactic might cause a double disaster.
Re: Dilkens uses strong mayor powers to pitch new tax hike to fund downtown Windsor revamp (Taylor Campbell, Apr. 24) Your recent article regarding increasing property taxes to help revitalize Windsor’s downtown reminded me of a letter I sent to the Windsor Star after the dedication of the WFCU Centre in 2008.
