Since turning eighteen I have proudly voted in Huron -Bruce for each of the three federal elec- tions that you won. After ending my studies in 2014 I have had the great privilege of living and working in Cupertino California for Apple Inc. Three years from now, should I still reside abroad, I will become a man without a vote. It's with that disenfran- chisement in mind that I send you my letter today. You recognized the chord Donald Trump struck with Rust Belt voters. I agree that a great deal of Mr. Trump's success on Tuesday evening can be attrib- uted to the people living—and in many cases struggling—in that area. However, I must implore you to also remember that those men and women are not alone in having embraced Mr. Trump's campaign slogan: "Make Amer- ica Great Again': Those with hate in their hearts have too. The Calgary Metro brought us news of Albertan Chris Ball being attacked with a bottle outside a Santa Monica bar by Trump supporters. NBC reports that Esra Nur Altun fell to the ground in a San Jose State University parking garage when a man tried to tear away her hijab Wednes- day morning. Two high-school students in Kansas received a five-day out-of-school suspen- sion for telling a Muslim student that "she's about to get kicked out anyway and we won The Ku Klux Klan is looking for new members in Alabama with the following message: "Get off the fence, whitey, and join the only group that has ever stood for the white man [...] Black radicals have reverted back to savages and more Mus- lims arrive daily." I have felt a sense of horror reading this vitriol, and witnessed the same gut -wrenching reaction from my friends, my loved ones, and my colleagues here in the United States. One would expect Mr. Trump's voice to the fiercest in condemning these incidents and others like them. One should expect that. Instead, all we hear is deafening silence. Sean Berry San Jose, CA (Formerly Lucknow LUCKNOW NEWS Remembrance Day well attended in Lucknow Ruth Dobrensky Lucknow held a wonderful Remembrance Day Service at the Lucknow Community Christian Reformed Church followed by a very meaningful service at the Cenotaph. This year Lucknow Legion Branch 309 were given ceramic pop- pies in memory of those lost from the Lucknow area and they and crosses with the names of veterans were placed around the Cenotaph by the students from Lucknow Public School. Even if you were just driving by the Cenotaph you couldn't help but notice the lovely huge red ceramic poppies. I was reminded the other day about some of the great places we have to shop in here in Luc - know besides the bakery and Mac's. It was remissive of me not to mention Green's Butcher Shop where you can purchase all types of meat products as well as frozen vegetables, pick- les, cheese and eggs. I must also mention that Home Hard- ware and Pharmasave also sell coffee, tea and cleaning prod- ucts. We are very lucky here in Lucknow to have so many places to shop and get basic essentials, even without a gro- cery store. Good news for everyone, the Lucknow Good Food Box program is back once again, need more info, go to the bak- ery, they can give you info and you can place your orders there. Dungannon United Church held their annual roast beef and pork buffet this past Sun- day night. I hear everyone was well fed and really enjoyed the wonderful food. The Lucknow Rumoli Club met this past Monday night for our usual montly fun and games. We sometimes get a lit- tle silly, but who cares, as long as we have a good time, what does it matter? Lucknow Presbyterian Church held their Taste of Christmas last Saturday with lots of baked goods and a tasty soup and sandwich lunch.
