Letter: Country headed toward dead end

By Bob Holdridge, VANCOUVER

The meaning of the action word “creating” is understood by most people. There is, of course, positive creations and negative creations. A lot of people are sometimes confused and are not sure when a creation is positive or negative. Others of good intentions may know the difference, but mistakenly create statements that turn out to be negative.

If it has not been noticed, our country has problems and unfortunately many decisions turn out to be negative. It appears that we have forces that create negative statements on purpose. Going down negative paths lead to a dead end. It appears it is time something be done to correct the situation or the country may end up at that dead end.

We encourage readers to express their views about public issues. Letters to the editor are subject to editing for brevity and clarity. Limit letters to 200 words (100 words if endorsing or opposing a political candidate or ballot measure) and allow 30 days between submissions. Send Us a Letter
