Perfection cannot be accomplished without an area to train. This can be seen by all athletes.

A group of West Valley residents would like to pass along our thanks to the RCMP, Town of Cochrane Municipal Enforcement, Roads Division and Citizens on Patrol.

Congratulations on your excellent editorial of March 10, “Time to make hard calls on carbon.” It is indeed time we face the reality of continued use of fossil fuels.
