He didn’t say ‘emotional’

Dear Editor:

In the North Shore News
for 8th March 1985 1 am
quoted as advising the North
Vancouver City council to
“shout and scream and get
emotional’’ (about the noise
along our waterfront). I did

not say **... get emotional.”
I said ‘‘... get high-profile."’
Your reporter evidently
misheard me. I pointed out
to council that the offending
companies are national con-
cerns, and, as your reporter
correctly states, suggested

Typical West

Dear Editor:

I would very much like to
respond to Joan Powell's
letter (Mailbox - February
24) implying North Van-
couver is populated by West
Vancouver rejects.

She, and her incredibly
typical West Van attitude, is
one reason why at times it is
embarrassing to say I was

. born and raised in West
Van. Her complaints,
however true, are unfortu-
nately a fact of life. Some
people are perhaps less con-
siderate than others — but
that’s a whole lot better than
being rude.

Ms. Powell would be ad-
vised to apply to West Van
Council on the possibility of
building a brick wall around
West Van to kee, the com-
mon folk out. Failing that
she coufd send an applica-
tion to Utopia for residence.

However she copes with
all the trauma she faces from
day to day she shouldn’t
worry about dogs ‘‘doing
their toilet?’ in her. garden.
She is dumping on .West

Vancouver
herself.

quite enough

that council make the matter
a national issue (rather than
just a local: one). 1 was not
suggesting that council do
this by getting emotional,
but by informing the na-
tional media of our pro-
blems with these companies.

What I said was, therefore,
somewhat different from
what your reporter states. |
would be grateful if you
would publish this correc-
tion.
