It certainly has not taken long for Tsawwassen's harbingers of doom and gloom to recover from the excesses of Christmas and New Year. And one certainly has to question why it's called "Sunny" Tsawwassen when this great cloud seems to continually hang over its residents.

Now the latest call to arms is over the proposed redevelopment of the old Southpointe Academy site. It may, God forbid, involve buildings of five to six storeys.

Yet where were these harbingers of doom when the new five-storey Southpointe Academy was being proposed?

And what an architectural abomination that has turned out to be.

Not only does it hang over the gateway to Tsawwassen like some reject from the Tilbury Industrial Park, it overshadows the architecture of the beautiful South Delta Baptist Church next door.

God, and the cloud, work in mysterious ways.
