Re: Liberal MLA should stick to North Delta, letter to the editor, July 11
I am extremely irritated at the recent publicity given to Delta North MLA Scott Hamilton, and in particular seeing him standing by a helicopter touring our farmland.
Hamilton supported the Southlands development, which sees a considerable loss of agricultural land in Tsawwassen, as we all know.
I was pleased that our South Delta MLA ensured her voice was heard on Southlands proposal at the Metro Vancouver level (via her staff member, Bernadette Kudzin). Our MLA listens to her constituents and serves us well and has always staunchly supported agriculture.
Yes, it seems the Liberal party cannot accept its defeat in South Delta. I would suggest it get over it and let us hear from our own MLA, not the one for North Delta.
As Joan Green stated in her letter, North Deltans must have plenty of their own issues that require attention.
