Letter to the editor

Letter to the editor

First, I am grateful for the opportunity to express my concern in light of the fact that I am personally involved in the latest calamity to hit the Philippines. Our family lives in Roxas City, Capiz, one of the hardest hit areas of this horrific storm.

But my conscience compels me to personally thank all the good, good people of Canada and the Niagara Region in particular for their immediate response to the needs of the many victims. Canadian compassion and generosity are second to none.

My heartfelt thanks and prayers for God╒s blessings an rewards goes to all who have sent aid with such selfless love and without the least hesitation. Thank you so much.

Please continue to support the victims of typhoon Haiyan with your prayers, thoughts and generous donations through various organizations.

Sincerely yours,

Arturo T. Viola
Former Lord Mayor
Town of Niagara-on-the-Lake

HELP IS ON THE WAY Julie Viola, a registered nurse, has left for the Philippines, having shipped cartons of medicine, medical supplies and baby formula before she left.  She is also taking supplies with her.

Such decisions will automatically influence the quality and quantity of the decorations, invitations, food, entertainments and the party favors.

  3. I create a comment each time I especially enjoy a post on a website or I have something to contribute to the discussion. It's caused by the sincerness communicated in the post I browsed. And on this article Letter to the editor. I was actually moved enough to drop a comment ;) I actually do have a few questions for you if you do not mind. Could it be only me or do some of these responses appear as if they are written by brain dead individuals? :-P And, if you are posting at additional online social sites, I would like to keep up with everything new you have to post. Would you list every one of all your shared sites like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?|

  7. With havin so much written content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright violation? My website has a lot of unique content I've either created myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my agreement. Do you know any methods to help reduce content from being ripped off? I'd truly appreciate it.

  9. Good day! I know this is kinda off topic but I'd figured I'd ask. Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest authoring a blog article or vice-versa? My site covers a lot of the same topics as yours and I believe we could greatly benefit from each other. If you are interested feel free to shoot me an email. I look forward to hearing from you! Fantastic blog by the way!
