Cheers and Jeers for Dec. 10

Cheers: Cheers to the homeowners on Jubilee Place. The Christmas spirit is alive and well there. Thanks for all of their hard work and dedication so the rest of the community can enjoy the lights.

Cheers to the fire department and the police officers for collecting toys for the Angel Tree program once again, and doing their part to help people have an enjoyable Christmas.

 

Cheers to the cleaning of the Walmart bathrooms by the cleaning staff. It has been very thorough, as were other areas within the store. Given COVID-19, the cleaning staff needs to be commended.

 

Cheers to the number of people who have been active outside the past few days, enjoying the warm weather by going for walks or jogs, or visiting parks in the city.

 

Cheers to the people who were downtown in Estevan on Thursday and Friday for the annual Moonlight Madness event, and for supporting local businesses.

 

Cheers to all of the minor sport coaches who have adapted their practice schedules so that kids can still have some type of sports activities.

 

Jeers:

Jeers to the people who treat the Pleasantdale valley like a dog park. Keep your dogs on a leash for the safety of everyone.

 

Jeers to the individuals who broke off all the sticks in Churchill Playpark that were placed there by city employees. Maybe they did not know they are used to guide the snowplow driver who keeps walking paths clear of snow.

 

Jeers to governments and their coal transition initiatives. What about all the oilfield workers that are already out of work? Where was, and is, the support for them? The governments and environmentalists of Canada want to shut down the oil industry just as much, if not more, than the coal industry.
