The ambiguous finale of the World Climate Talks in Glasgow have left many of us a little raw. Not a success — but not a failure.

I wish to express my deep dismay at the recent proposal to redevelop the Cedarwood Motel property by Chard Development and GMC Projects.

Sidney’s seaside character is under threat. The enormous five-storey buildings proposed to replace the quiet Cedarwood motel on Lochside Drive would loom over the adjacent residential neighbourhood. But the many downsides to this project are not just local neighbourhood issues – they affect all Sidney residents and visitors.

I would like to thank the gentleman who went along Mowat Street clearing the storm drains of leaves on Monday morning. It shows there are a lot of good people still around looking after neighbors.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the emergency staff at Saanich Peninsula Hospital who helped to support Bruce Williams in October. Your professional presence and compassionate care were extraordinary. Thank you for providing him with such a gentle journey in his final days.

I would like to comment on the article of Nov. 4 “Police board approves electric bikes for patrol.” The writer more correctly could have titled the same article “Police board turns its back on climate concerns.”
