Dear Editor:
Sloganeering is a demanding job.
It means scanning the dictionary for alliterative nicknames for each political figure on the other side. It also requires grabbing the playbook of any party opposite and tearing out the pages that reference carbon rebates, child benefits, school food programs, the lowering inflation rate, new dental programs, new green industries and such.
So busy is the life of a sloganeer that one has no time to even consider climate change or the mess we leave our children to clean up.
A caution to journalists covering the speeches of a sloganeer: keep the mic open, but back your camera away from any flying food bits when the sloganeer is asked about his million-dollar pension.
Arlene Callaghan,
Fergus
