Dear Editor Re: free recreation passes for refugees.
“There is no cost to taxpayers.” This is not the principle of the free passes. We have plenty of retired people in Burnaby who would be very glad to go to the pool or other amenities for a change as they are sitting at home all winter.
Let’s take care of our own first. Doesn’t charity begin at home? Would you not look after your own family first, so the city of Burnaby should like after its own citizens first.
When I go to the pool I have to pay unless I am a councillor.
Mr. A. Brian Vandergugten, Burnaby
