‘Effective’ humour

Dear Editor:

RE: U.S. ‘values democracy,’ Jan. 22.

I would like to express my appreciation to Carolann Krusky for her letter to the editor. 

As someone with no political affiliation, her suggestion that the current American administration values democracy and freedom, and that Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre is in any way suited to meet this particular moment in history, was the funniest thing I’ve read in a long time. 

Humour as effective as this is especially valuable in these troubled times. She may wish to consider a career as a stand-up comic.
