The Province

Not the whole story

-

Letter-writer Paul Rogers scolded Abbotsford council for their short-sightednes­s regarding the $15 million the province was going to donate toward a homeless shelter. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe council members had offered B.C. Housing a different location that in their minds was a more suitable location and it was turned down.

Councillor­s have to listen to their constituen­ts and it isn’t always the noisy ones who represent the majority. This is how misinforma­tion is spread and used by minorities to get their way.

I blame the media, in part, because in their reporting the complete story isn’t being told.
