COLUMN: Viewpoint - Oak trees (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When I traveled to Ukraine to find the birthplaces of my husband’s parents and my grandparents, I saw an ancient oak tree, which served as a gathering place and an important symbol for Mennonites who lived in the Chortitza area of Ukraine for some 140 years. Acorns from that oak came to Canada with Mennonite immigrants seeking freedom from oppression, and with their descendants who visited Ukraine to explore their heritage. Those acorns were planted across our country and have grown into mature
COLUMN: Viewpoint - 25 years after 9/11 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Tomorrow is the 25th anniversary of the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks. The disaster killed 2,977 people. When I visited the 9/11 Memorial in New York City I walked around its twin reflecting pools. Inscribed on the bronze wall surrounding the pools are the names of every one of the people that ultimately lost their life that day.

COLUMN: Viewpoint - Hanover School Division is national news (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I was surprised to open Saturday’s Globe and Mail and find an article about my hometown of Steinbach prominently featured.

Read excerpt
I have crossed the Ambassador Bridge in Detroit probably a hundred times. My husband’s family lives in Leamington, a town close to the border city of Windsor. So every summer, and for many Christmases of our 53-year marriage, we have gone to Leamington to visit. Our round-trip journeys almost always took us through the United States, since Leamington’s designation as the southernmost mainland community in Canada, made a primarily American route the shortest way to travel between Manitoba and my
COLUMN: Viewpoint - Kinew to come to Steinbach Pride, will Goertzen follow suit? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Steinbach’s upcoming Pride Parade made the news recently when Premier Wab Kinew announced he would attend the September 2026 event. This will be his first official visit to Steinbach since being elected in 2023. Although the premier was in Steinbach for a private listening session with health-care workers in 2024, and some of his cabinet ministers have attended various events in the city, the Pride Parade in autumn will be the first time Mr. Kinew has made an official public visit. I find it sig
