Dear Editor:

T would like to respond to J. Middleton's letter of

Nov. 21.

As a motorcycle driver with 23 years experience |
am outraged at the lax attitude of this young (i'm 29)
society's regard for personal welfare.

Does this individual honestly believe that he should
be allowed to just jump ov any quote ‘motor bicy-
cle” and head off merrily into the sunset?

Where exactly on the road does this individual in-
tend to drive this toy? [thas ovo wheels, lights, and
an engine. [tis a motoreyele (barely) and us such
should be governed as any other velticle.

You need special skills and training if you intend te
ride and stay alive on the roads of the Lower
Mainland,

Dear Editor:

I have read with great interest,
Doug Collins’ articles on South
Africa. Having read several books
on the country, I learned that even
100 years ago there were relatively
few blacks in the country. In re-
cent years there has been a
tremendous influx of blacks from
neighboring countries.

It' would seem that anyone,
black, white, red, or yellow moves
from one place to another for the
simple reason that they believe
things and life to be better in the
selected area which they move to.
(i moved from Ontario to B.C.)

In view of this, why are hun-
dreds of thousands of blacks con-
tinually moving to a country in
which, if one believes the media,
they are to be persecuted? Surely
life for the black in South Africa is
much better than in the country
they left.

Would we Canadians not object
to another race of people invading
our shores and trying to overthrow
our government? Whether they
came from outer space or Russia?

As for the vote, many thousands
of these people have no knowledge
of what a vote is ( how many voted
in our own civic elections?).

Thank you Doug Collins for
taking the time to find out the
truth about a country which stands
firm in its own beliefs. I only wish
Canada was ruled with the same
determination.

Woman praises
WV Fire Dept.

Dear Editor:

A big thank you goes out to the
Local 1 West Vancouver Fire
Department. ‘

My husband fell. Being unable
to get him up myself, I called the
emergency number and told them
(non emergency). Within minutes,
two young men arrived and had
him back in bed.

They were polite, friendly, effi-
cient and sympathetic to our
plight. We were so grateful to
them.

We are indeed fortunate to have
such dedicated young men working
for us in West Vancouver.
