BOUQUET: Thank you to Real Canadian Superstore for providing a hand washing station at the exit to their store. It has been there for several weeks and I appreciate being able to wash my hands after I shop there. Also appreciate the way they have organized the checkout system and the staff are very cheerful and helpful.
BEEF: I donB次元官网网址檛 know where to turn to voice my opinion. Victoria has always been classed as a B次元官网网址渘early wed, nearly deadB次元官网网址� city. It took years to have sidewalks, taxis, stores, etc. made wheelchair accessible. Now weB次元官网网址檙e taking accessibility away from seniors or people who have mobility issues. Wanting to close part of the lagoon to cars, Beacon Hill Park and now part of Government Street, is discriminating as far as I am concerned. What happened to making it easier to access, not harder. Any advice of who to talk to?
BOUQUET: to the volunteers who have been in the Highlands picking up the cut scotch broom during the month of May. We appreciate being able to dispose of the invasive plant in our neighbourhood.
BEEF: A big beef to the drivers on Metchosin and Wishart roads. School zones are back in, and driving 80 km/h through a school zone is not very safeB次元官网网址low down.
BEEF: Spotted a dog walker in Colwood Creek Park throwing his poop bag in the big evergreen tree near the entrance of the park. ThereB次元官网网址檚 a garbage can right thereB次元官网网址SE IT!!
BOUQUET: A bouquet to the families of the two boys (ages 8-10?) that were bike riding on Friday afternoon on Happy Valley Road near the firehall. They were such polite boys and were very safe in the crossing of the road. They came to a complete stop, waved a few cars by, and then proceeded with care across the roadB次元官网网址alking their bikes. ItB次元官网网址檚 great to see kids having fun out on their bikes and being safe doing it.
