Bill C-69 is vital to the environmental well-being of our province.

If there has ever been a deterrent to amalgamation it has to be the current Victoria council. I don’t know how these people got elected again, but what a bad joke on Victoria.

Canada’s election is just around the corner and I’m concerned that our political parties are not protecting the personal information they gather from us. I believe that they should be made subject to federal privacy laws.

There is much good information and discussion on the issues of owner occupancy, parking bylaws and impact on trees in Phases 1 and 2 of the present suite study.

I write this in response to a letter written to the editor that was in June 7’s Peninsula News Review . It concerns the ongoing parking mess in this town and I feel that perhaps this gentleman may have read my letter from a week prior and I also know this is a topic that must be talked about, addressed properly by council and brought to light to those who perhaps aren’t affected so much by the parking issues.

I want to thank the West Shore, Sooke, Metchosin, Highlands and Victoria communities for your support over the last nine years with my own brought-to-life Year Round Bottle Drive for Animal Rescue. Due to medical reasons I have had to resign from the bottle drive and slow down and smell the flowers.
