Editor: As a Tsawwassen resident living on the U.S. border adjacent to Point Roberts, I have a few harsh words for federal Industry Minister James Moore and his generic, inaccurate and absolutely insulting form letter sent to myself and fellow concerned neighbours requesting help to right a wrong: do your job! A fraudulent application has been submitted to the Federal Communications Commission and it is Moore's responsibility to inform the United States government of such and request the application process be re-opened for an honest review of the facts.
I will gladly donate to the legal fund to support our wonderful friends in Point Roberts who have raised three times more money to fight this issue than Tsawwassen residents, but resent Moore and MP Kerry-Lynne Findlay for having to do so.
If Moore officially declares Tsawwassen as "nonexistent," then I think we have a legal precedent to inform his boss and colleagues, Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Premier
Christy Clark and Revenue Canada, that 22,000 people are no longer required to pay taxes. How about that, Mr. Moore? How a radio station from Richmond can omit Tsawwassen off a FCC application and an MP with an office in Ladner and a federal minister who lives in Port Moody let them get away with it is an outrage.
Shame on you! I will certainly never vote Progressive Conservative again.
Need we remember the power lines fiasco?
