MaAILBox 7 - Sunday, June 18, 1989 — North Shore News Canyon development plan is Dear Editos: | . We believe that changing the beautiful scenic park, Lynn Can- yon, into a residential area is a pa- thetic excuse for an idea. The reconstruction of Lynn Canyon would be an irrational mistake that everyone would regret in the end. To destroy an en- vironment like Lynn Canyon ‘irational’ would deprive us of a nearby community park. We use this particular place for recreation day in and day out. Destroying it will enly strip our community of a great outdoor nature park. If plans do follow through it will prove North Vancouver District Council has no compassion or > consideration whatsoever for our interests concerning this project. This new construction develop- ment is unwanted by everyone. Council should respect the public’s opinion and find another location to proceed with construction. Don Watson and Maggie Smith North Vancouver LGH nurses commended Dear Editor: In the midst of all that is now being said over the present nursing situation I would like to add my voice. 1 was recently in Lions Gate Hospital on floors 6 and 7 and underwent surgery. I know that by the way I was treated in both wards that the nursing staff cared. The ladies were obviously over- worked but still available when called upon and I knew, by their attentions to me, that they had my well-being in mind at all times and that attitude certainly helped me, both mentally and physically, in my recovery. Lions Gate Hospital is .a wonderful asset to the North Shore with all its facilities but without the caring staff, both nurses and doctors, it would just be an ordi- nary health unit. L.
