Alberta has a very high rate of COVID cases, Medicine Hat has gone from low double digit cases to 103 in a matter of days, why are we the only province without a mask bylaw?! What is the provincial government and our city council waiting for... more deaths? We wear seat belts to protect ourselves, what is so wrong with wearing a mask, low-teens percentage of Hatters seem to care!

I can’t believe that Canadians would be responsible for electing Justin Trudeau as our leader on the world stage. In his own words “that really sucks.”

When our mayor said Medicine Hat was somewhat of an outlier in the entire country, did he really mean naive and negligent? Time to act is long past due, pass a bylaw on public mask use.

I’m tickled pink that Medicine Hat city council has held off on any mandatory mask bylaw, giving this matter careful consideration before rushing in like everybody else.

Not all teachers want to shut down schools. Schools have been one of the safest places in our community and now these children will be able to socialize at all hours of the day, increasing the risk of spreading the virus.

UCP logic; my husband and I cannot take our children to visit their grandparents in their home. However, we can spend hours with them at the mall without the need of masks. I feel so much safer!

Ridiculous! Funerals are restricted to a congregation of 10, however regular services allow for attendances in the hundreds inside large churches.

With the holiday shopping season now in full gear, it is time our procrastinating city council enacted a mask bylaw for all public places including transportation. Medicine Hat is the largest municipality in Canada without this public safety mandate. It is about time to give business some support in protecting their staff and customers.
