Opinion

We could wring our editorial hands over the low voter turnout - although it did bump up by a miniscule one per cent this time. We could decry the lack of substantive debate on issues during the campaign.

I must confess, I've always had a soft spot for Christy Clark. She reminds me a bit like Demi Moore in that movie, G.I. Jane. Of course, G.I. Jane's story and hers diverge somewhat.

now pundits have already pored over riding-by-riding results, finding trends, aberrations, bloopers, and generally squeezing every bit of news, or what passes for news, out of the provincial election.

Dear Editor: Re: Homeowners get 2.47 per cent tax increase, Burnaby NOW, May 10. When will the Burnaby city council drop the pre-tense that they are effectively controlling spending and wisely using our tax dollars.

Dear Editor: The British Columbia Ministry of Education should update their intermediate elementary curriculum to include lessons on lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender issues.

Dear Editor: I am a senior living in Burnaby and have recently begun to use TaxiSavers occasionally.

Dear Editor: I have some ideas of what I would like to see happening in my community with respect to government. I love how one of the "green" parties - the "greenest" one I can think of - is running in the upcoming provincial election.

Dear Editor: Like many elections, the current provincial election involves a choice of the least bad option rather than the best option.

The last editorial in print from us before voting day. This is usually when we cajole, guilt, nag, and exhort Burnaby citizens to get off their couches and do the right thing.
