There is one omission, however, that I would like to point out. When the candidates were listed after nomination papers were filed, and I noted that the fact I was a, former councillor was omitted. (while other former whatevers had been mentioned), he said that Ed- itorial had taken it out.

You will agree that the fact that one has previously served on council (as on others’ highlights) is an important one to note, especially since, it indicates valuable experience. It would be much appreciated if you would kindly correct this. Thank you again for your ser- vice to the community and your attention to this matter. Carolanne Reynolds West Vancouver Make your mark Nov. 20 Dear Editor: It is with voter fatigue in mind that 1 set out to remind. West Vancouver residents of the up- coming municipal elections. Of particular concern to me are our 18-year-old citizens who for the first time will be given the right to vote in municipal elec- tions. They should contact their can- didates and determine who, if any, among them have given thought to their concerns. While democracy may not be perfect, it’s the best form of gov- ernment invented to date; howev- er, its effectiveness is based on voter participation. So, on Nov. 20, make your mark and vote in the municipal election.

However, we are concerned with your policy of “grading”. incumbents. Our concerns are as follows: The grades appear to be the opinion of only one reporter. We do not know the reporter’s biases or who his friends may be. There appear to be no criteria as to how the grades are determined. The incumbents’ positions on. specific issues are not disclosed. The qualities of the non- incumbents are ignored. We would strongly recom- mend that the North Shore News cease grading incum- bents until some criteria for the grades have been estab- lished and published. A.
