Sky is falling over the Southlands

Editor: Gosh, there are a lot of little chickens (oops, I meant Chicken Littles!) living in Tsawwassen, it seems. The sky is falling over the Southlands. Truck exhaust is gonna kill us, maybe even way up here in North Delta.

The sky is falling over the Southlands. Truck exhaust is gonna kill us, maybe even way up here in North Delta. Kids are gonna havta find a new place t' play with their soccer balls, maybe even way up here in North Delta.

There'll be bulldozers, graders, backhoes and cranes on every street corner. And just imagine several thousand trucks idling on 56th Street every Saturday morning. They might even go in and out of town, their brakes hissin' all the way.

But there's a bright side.

With all this activity there might even be some benefits. We can leave it to saner minds to envision what they might be when the sun continues to shine and the rain continues to fall, when the sky stays where it's sposed t' be and all of the wonderful ideas embodied in the proposal submitted by Century Group begin to be realized.

And the developer might even turn a buck. Sinful, just plain sinful.
