Voice of reason silenced?

Dear Editor:

I find it more than a little inter-
esting that you are only publishing
letters from people opposed to
Doug Collins’ views, particularly
since I am aware that several peo-
ple have written you in the last few
weeks supporting Mr. Collins.

The fact that Mr. Collins has a
rather large following on the North
Shore was evidenced very clearly
by the tremendous support given
him prior to the last election.

Doesn't that give you a
Message? Or are you setting us up
for the inevitable? Now that the
North Shore News has been sold to
Southam, are you going to silence
the one voice of reason left who

speaks on behalf of so many of us
who love this country and don’t

want to see it turned into a suburb |

of Hong Kong or another third
world? Frankly, I would not be
surprised.

Editor’s note: Letters — both
against or in support of Doug Col-
lins, or any other columnist —
have a better chance of being
published if they make specific
references to columns, arguments
or opinions. Generic letters of
praise or criticism fail to shed new
light on an issue, and therefore are
less likely to be published.

Ski patrol appreciated

Dear Editor:

I wish to highly commend
members of the Cypress Crass
Country ski patrol.

After having an accident on the
slopes Jan. 22, I found the team to
be a professional, dedicated and
caring group of people.
