Dear Editor
It was with much concern that I read the article by Derek Howard in regard to the volunteer of EDCNS (Economic Development Corporation of North Simcoe) who donated $32 to the Freedom Convoy.
He also decided to mention a local business that donated $25 to said fund.
I had foolishly thought MidlandToday would be above publishing such a divisive article about one of our own citizens.
I do not know, nor have ever met the volunteer or the shop owner who have been targeted,
but believe the attempt of the article to cause division in the Midland-area is unacceptable reporting.
I personally did not make any donation and am vaxxed, but truly believe that in a free country there is room for peaceful, respectful, thoughtful dialogue .
Thank you
Elaine Yeatman
