Attack on Trudeau ‘indecent’

Dear Editor:

As you call your
newspaper the “Voice of
North and West Van-

couver”, I would like to
respond tc to the article of your
writer, Bob Hunter, who
uses the Polish situation as

yet another excuse to
lambaste Prime Minister
Tradeau.

From what I have

gathered in the news and
from what the Prime
Minister said, he would want
to save the Polish people
from widespread bloodshed.

Deep down, I suppose Mr.
Hunter stands for the same
thing, but by failing to ex-
plore the alternative to
martial law, he suggests that
civil war would be a mere tea
party by comparison.

Now, disagreement may
be desirable and = cven
commendable, but when this
person blatantly reviles our
leader by saying. amongst
other abusive things, he is
criminally motivated in
“support of the butchers in
Warsaw”, it makes one
wonder at the tolerated
disrespect of the freedoms in
our country.

Keep guns for freedom

Dear Editor:

How right Bob Hunter is in
his article “Trudeau's too
much” (your January 13
gumber).

We are being led by the
nose along the path leading
to a pernicious form of
totalitarianism, not overt as

An armed citizenry is no
easy prey for dictators. First
of all take away their
weapons and the rest is easy.

That is precisely what

Trudeau and his minions are
aiming at. One has only to
consider Warren Allmand —
step by step he is striving to
legalize the elimination of
any arms in the hands of
individuals. To achieve this
objective, they and his like
dwell on those cases where
firearms have been used to
commit murder. They say,
let us remove firearms from
the people and so save lives.
Thousands are killed in
road accidents, many more

suffer horrible injuries. That
is the price we are ready to
pay for the convenience of
using automobiles.

How much more should ,

we be prepared to pay a far
smaller price for our liberty
and freedom?

Remember the true saying
“When guns are outlawed,
only outlaws will have guns.”

Curb illegal parkers

OPEN LETTER TO
WEST VAN COUNCIL

At this time I am not
advocating or requesting 4
crackdown on illegal suites,
I just wish to air my views on
the matter.

I am paying taxes for a
single family area, and for
the past several years have
secn, what in my opinion is,
a deterioration of this
neighborhood due in part to
more competition for the
available parking space.

I am im no position to
judge whether the owners of
these illegal suites need the
added income,but it is my
personal opinion that if these
people need, or desire, a
duplex, they should go into a
duplex-zoned area. If they
choose to stay in a single
family area and maintain an
illegal suite, the least they

could do is provide parking
for their tenants.

Here in West Vancouver
we have a bylaw (I think not
widely known) that limits
parking to three hours unless
the vehicle is in front of the
owner's place.

I do not believe any
reasonable citizen would
expect that it be rigidly
enforced, but I for one am
fed up with vehicles that
should not be here in the
first place parking for hours
and a source of annoyance

to me and my guests.

Perhaps if houses were
taxed on the number of
people they harboured,
there wouldn't be as many
vehicles congesting an area.

I think that perhaps I have
placed the last polite note
under the windshield wiper
of offending cars and, in
future, should the need
arise, I will turn the matter
over to the police.

Many people in this
community have rational but
differing opinions of our
elected representatives. But
this does not mean that they

enjoy or would be a party to
libellous and indecent hate

It is a pity your writer's
obvious talents are wasted
on’ such rubbish. But,

direct his work into more
useful channels.
