LETTER: Dogs must be kept under control on trails

LETTER: Dogs must be kept under control on trails

I read with interest the two letters in the Sept. 1 issue of the Saanich BԪַ. As it happens, my daughter was walking through Mount Douglas Park that morning as she often does. She passed two women walking a dog. As she passed, the dog turned and grabbed my daughter in the leg. The lady in BԪַcontrolBԪַ of the dog was a friend of the owner who was also there. The owner immediately took control of the dog.
LETTER: Amazon warehouse will fit right in with ugly condos

LETTER: Amazon warehouse will fit right in with ugly condos

Re: The Amazon warehouse. Never mind the huge eye sore in the beautiful town of Sidney (itBԪַs across the highway), what about all the tall ugly condos that have been put up all around Sidney. They look terrible.

LETTER: Saanich working to develop safer routes to school

LETTER: Saanich working to develop safer routes to school

We are stuck in a cycle, and thatBԪַs not a good thing. IBԪַve heard some parents are afraid to let their kids walk or bike to school because there are too many cars. In consequence, they drive their kids to schoolBԪַand the cycle repeats. We know our schools werenBԪַt built to handle so many cars and they often need to close or restrict their drop-off loops, if they have one.
LETTER: Langford mayor steamrolling his opposition

LETTER: Langford mayor steamrolling his opposition

I was disappointed by Mayor Stew YoungBԪַs comments, particularly his tone and choice of language. I have been a homeowner in Langford for 15 years (long enough for my opinion to be considered legitimate by Mr. Young?) and certainly do not live in a BԪַ$2 millionBԪַ house BԪַ maybe 30 per cent of that figure.
