I do not know Mr. Keily but I do - ‘know Mr. Malo. and have a_ problem with his representa- tion of a community minded taxpayer. I do identify with Mr. Malo’s . negative feelings ‘about things’ being. decided - behind closed doors. I also "agree with Mr. Kelly when he suggests that the taxpay- ers of: Terrace who share. his and Mr. Malo’s opinion © ~ may be accused of not being’ Anita McColl, community minded. Here’s some food for of i ice. though: Mr. Malo, one of © these. “regular ' taxpayers”, chooses to work outside of a Terrace, he purchased his ‘wife’s new vehicle outside -of Terrace and it seems he would go to any length to save himself a dollar. Frugal- » ity is admirable, but I have. recognized the importance ‘of supporting my local mer-. chants and the community in which I live, at all cost. I would suggest the afore- ‘mentioned article would - have been more convincing if it had featured two men with their school aged chil- dren around them, all oppos- ing the proposed ’plex facil- ity.
