Dear editor, Like Anne Davis (letter to editor March 22), I also support the Cliffe Avenue site for the new homeless shelter. A shelter downtown won’t draw the homeless and near homeless to downtown. They’re already there.

It didn’t take new Premier Christy Clark long to make her mark in Victoria.

Dear editor, The people who stole the No Coal Mine signs around Fanny Bay and the Valley stole more than just some pieces of plastic that were private property.

Dear editor, I fear the establishment of a homeless shelter on Cliffe Avenue opposite Shoppers Drug Mart, an area where many get their prescriptions and do their banking.

Dear editor, I am writing today because I am one of many Fanny Bay residents who has contacted the RCMP to report a theft.

Dear editor, Since we are facing an unnecessary election and an HST referendum, I am challenging the federal government and the B.C. government to use their heads and save us (the taxpayers) several million dollars by combining these two exercises into one.

Dear editor, I find it both fascinating and disappointing at how the media is playing up the fact that people are not interested in a federal election.

Dear editor, Let me clarify my stance on coal mine versus no coal mine.

Dear editor, I should like to add my voice to that of Ms. Anne Davis in support of the shelter-challenged in our community. [Attract homeless to downtown Courtenay? They're already (t)here March 23, 2011].
