All that construction ­is hurting our city I take the 27/28 bus to downtown to work. I was 30 minutes late one recent morning.

But now, it’s turning into just another boring, ugly, congested place with little reason to visit here. Victoria and other municipalities in the region … you think you’ve made sound decisions, but you’re seeing the small picture and, sadly, some of us see the big picture where Victoria is no longer where people go except for street folks who end up in all the buildings others don’t occupy.Museum loses parking, cyclists get a new lane I wonder whose bright idea it was to take away all the parking beside the Royal B.C.

The children, in the safety of the classroom and with the teacher present, can open up about strangers hanging around the school yard. The best I’ve been able to discover is that around three dozen Canadians are shot and killed by police every year. The majority of these are young males, around half are Indigenous, and more than 80 per cent are in possession of a weapon when they are shot.

In short, it’s not the police who need to change, it’s young males. Don’t commit crimes and don’t carry weapons. If some demographic groups are “overrepresented” in our prison system, there may be a good reason for that.

Uber should not be allowed operation without the same requirements. Uber also is able to raise or lower prices arbitrarily, depending on demand, whereas traditional cab companies have a standard going rate that can be relied upon.
