Dear Editor: I never thought I would see states’ rights as a good thing, since my governor (George Wallace) used it as an excuse to rob people of color of their human rights. But attorneys general Healey and Schneiderman give me hope. So what if Trump puts in an EPA head who wants to destroy the […]
Dear Editor: I’m writing in regards to the December 8 story in the Citizen entitled “Residents, officials take stand against hate.” I find it ironic that Kathleen Howley, who claims to want everyone in Canton to feel safe, just called approximately half of the voters of the U.S. bigots. She says she personally blames Donald […]
Dear Editor: There’s sweet music in Canton now. Last Wednesday night I attended a concert at the high school. Having not been too impressed over the years by the music program, I was not sure things had changed. But they have, oh how they have changed. There was such an air of professionalism from both […]
Dear Editor: I am writing to voice my surprise about the town’s approval of a very large liquor store in Cobb’s Corner, as reported in the December 1 edition of the Canton Citizen. As the article stated, there are already four places of business that sell wine, beer and/or liquor in Cobb’s Corner. I called the […]
Dear Editor: The Staffiere family would like to extend our appreciation to our wonderful family, friends, neighbors, the Legends hockey team, Canton Youth Hockey and Canton Youth Soccer, JFK CAPT, and anonymous donors who have supported our family during this very difficult year with dinners, gift cards, flowers, plants, special gifts, rides to activities for […]
Dear Canton: I am proud that Massachusetts has been an example for other states across the nation in terms of clean energy and energy efficiency. In addition to a state energy bill that encourages offshore wind and energy storage for renewable energy, on August 17 the Massachusetts Supreme Court ruled that the “pipeline tax” is […]
Editor’s note: The newly approved Reservoir Pond use regulations allow for boat launching at the Earl Newhouse Waterfront for boats no larger than 16 feet and with a motor no greater than 10 horsepower. Dear Editor: Last Tuesday evening, the Canton Board of Selectmen addressed a self-described long-winded letter that I previously sent to the […]
Dear Editor: We were so saddened to read about the untimely death of Mr. Gary McNamara recently. Our three children, Karen, Laura and Eric, were all privileged to be taught and inspired by “Mr. Mac” and so many other wonderful Canton teachers when they were young. They are all thriving today in no small measure […]
Editor’s note: The Citizen provided the Board of Selectmen the opportunity to respond in writing to the questions contained in this letter. However, the board instead intends to address the matter at its next meeting on October 18. Dear Editor: I am writing on behalf of Free the Rez to discuss the activity, or lack […]
Dear Editor: On August 9, our Board of Selectmen voted 4-1 to oppose a resolution submitted by the “No Canton Gas Pipeline” group that objects to the controversial Access Northeast project — a $3 billion proposed expansion of the Algonquin Gas Transmission system that would add five miles of new gas pipeline in Canton. Did […]
