Dear Editor
Premier Clark has given us, the people, the power to make real positive change for our future. Vote Yes for the transit tax and you will guarantee 0.5 per cent of all sales tax is dedicated to future transit upgrades.
If you have ever looked away from a climate change article because its contents scared you, if you have ever worried whether your children will ever see the same animals you saw growing up, if you have ever said there is nothing I can do to make our future environment better, now is the time to stop being scared, worried or complacent.
You can vote Yes and make a difference to our quality of life and our air quality.
Don't let the economic naysayers and the political leaders who have abdicated their responsibilities to us dissuade you. Do what is right for our future generations in the Lower Mainland.
We as a group of citizens can make a difference and help our province evolve.
Make traffic, gridlock and air pollution conversations of the past and livability the talk of our future.
You have the power to vote Yes!
Louise Hazemi, Burnaby
