Editor: Re: Pedestrians hit along Trunk Road, Sept. 7 Having read about yet another couple of pedestrians being hit I find I can't hold my tongue any longer.

Editor: I have lived in Tsawwassen for over 20 years now and recently I have noticed there are bird guns going off in the fields bordering Tsawwassen.

Editor: The recent referendum regarding the 12 per cent HST versus GST/PST (five per cent + seven per cent) was incomplete. It didn't provide us with the considerable cost consequences to stopping the HST and restarting the GST/PST of over $1.

Editor: The New Democratic Party has little to gain by associating itself with a corrupt old-boys' club that thinks itself entitled to govern this country.

Premier Clark: Whilst I was pleased to hear that you were in Delta recently, I was disappointed that the town hall was not more of an open meeting where you could have heard from a cross section of Delta residents.

Two weeks ago we found out the HST was dead and we would go back to GST and PST. Since then the airwaves have been filled with more confusion and flawed economics.

Editor: Re: Mayor's daughter critical of ND, Aug.

It was a glorious late summer morning, other than the fact it was my first day back from two weeks of holidays. I left the house shortly after 8 a.m. on Tuesday and walked north along Arthur Drive toward our office in Ladner Village.

Editor: Last Friday morning Premier Christy Clark came to Tsawwassen (unannounced to the public) to address the media with her announcement of $8 million for school playgrounds.
