Now that the Southlands issue is out of the headlines, let's focus on the next major issue that will affect all of us in Tsawwassen, and possibly Ladner too: the specter of those monster radio towers coming to our neighbourhood.
Concerns have already been addressed by experts in the field, including the letter last week from retired lineman Bill Hamilton. In addition, the full-page spread from the "Stop the Border Blaster" has put things in perspective.
In contrast, our local MP shows little concern. However, there is another group of Tsawwassenites who should be concerned: the local business and service providers. There are banks, stores, offices and home-based operations that should be just as concerned as individuals. What about the Delta Chamber of Commerce? Is it not worried about potential problems? I tried to contact Telus, but got nowhere, apart from an indirect message indicating that if interference occurred among its electronic devices, it would try to fix it. That's not reassuring.
This is an issue that affects everyone who lives and works here, and it should be resolved before the towers are installed.
