All posts by George Walters

George Walters is a Canadian columnist and author with more than forty years of writing experience. For over twenty years he has written a weekly column for Postmedia Network — Canada's largest newspaper chain — never missing a single week, publishing fifty-two stories a year. Combined with his work in Reader's Digest Community Voices, World News, Country Living, The Country Register, and farm and rural lifestyle magazines across Canada, he has published well over two thousand stories drawn from everyday life. He writes about farm work, fishing, old trucks, and the kind of people you only find in small towns — but just as likely he'll hand a voice to a weathered telephone pole, or turn his eye on something happening in the world today and tell you exactly what he thinks about it. No subject is off limits. If there's a story in it, George will find it. He has been called a philosopher of everyday life, a description that came up more than once during his television appearances over the years — and it's not hard to see why. His writing has a way of making the ordinary feel worth sitting with. He is the author of eleven books, including yearly short story collections and the Clay Moretti Files mystery series. Clay is a fifty-year-old private investigator who drives a 1967 Ford Galaxie, smokes cigars, and operates by a code the modern world gave up on a long time ago. The cases are present day. The man handling them is not. All titles are available in paperback and eBook on Amazon. Together, George and his wife Ruth have also created Elmer Finds His Way, the first in what he hopes will be a long series of children's books. Ruth did all the illustrations, as she has for every one of George's books — and beyond that she designed and painted the covers as well. Her work is woven into every page of everything he has published. A few words from readers: "I pulled up a kitchen chair and read your story three times." "You have a way of making a person homesick for a place they haven't been to." "Thank you for writing things that make old people and kids feel the same way at the same time." All my titles are available in paperback and eBook on Amazon.ca here.

Milk GMO Food What’s Next

A glass of milk can contain a cocktail of up to 20 painkillers, antibiotics and growth hormones, scientists have shown.

Using a highly sensitive test, they found a host of chemicals used to treat illnesses in animals and people in samples of cow, goat and human breast milk.

Just what I been saying now for the past twenty years.  We are what we eat.   That is why so many of us are getting sick, as what they feed the cattle, chickens, everything, then we eat them and all them poisons go into our body.   Simple process but very deadly over time.  And now with with this GMO food they are putting on the market, with more to come as they are doing the same with nature.  We keep playing with nature and changing it’s DNA and things like that, we are looking at a very serious problem let me tell you.  As it stands plants and things are having a hard enough time as it is. You start playing around with their genetic being they won’t know what to do and I wouldn’t hesitate in saying they could be the next superior race, a whole mess of plants loaded with drugs.  Sounds far fetched?  Well it isn’t, it is already happening with our wheat and other things they have tampered with. They have injected it with all kinds of things, loaded it with pesticides.    You are the only ones that can stop this, so speak out when some one mentions GMO food.  The more that are against it the better the chance we have in straightening things out.  My Opinion Only.

Alcohol & Cancer

How much alcohol is REALLY safe? None, say cancer specialists in today’s news.

Well……I can’t let this one get away with out a word of how I feel. Kind of figure they had their say, now I am entitled to mine. Right? OK then.  If the truth be known through my eyes having a drink or two a day of a nice fine brandy or any other kind of drink wouldn’t hurt anyone, or at the very least cause cancer. Years ago it was made quite differently though, without the toxic chemicals they use today. I would believe that a good home made wine would be of an asset to ones body, keeping in mind moderation of course.  I am no doctor that is for sure, but the truth is right in front of them.   The truth is that it’s not the drink that causes cancer, it is what the drinks are made up of.  Which is pesticides of all kinds, chlorine for cleaners, fungicides, antibiotics,  just too many to name, same goes for food.   We today believe that treating folks and an feeding folks poisons is ok, it is accepted in our society.   That is the bottom line, simple as that.  Just had to put in my two cents here.  My Opinion Only

Great Quote

My lovely Sister Barb sent me this quote.  It is one that explains exactly what is happening to folks here in the world as we see it today.  My feelings exactly.

I just think that in our material consciousness, that our lives of  existence have been made so easy by technology, that our human struggle to do the right thing is shutting down.
