Editor: I support a “no” on the sales tax increase. TransLink must change first, before anything else.
I congratulate Jordan Bateman for his position during the debate on the proposed transit tax (The Times, Jan. 22), and I couldn’t agree with him more.
I also enjoyed reading Richard Keill’s letter on page 7 of the same edition. He nailed it as well. The points that were brought up in both instances should convince most of us that we need to wake up, because if this tax goes through, then there is no turning back.
There is nothing in TransLink’s history that will guarantee a change. We will get more of the same.
Bill Tieleman, you are wrong. This is about TransLink and its bloated untouchable bureaucracy. TransLink change comes first, before anything else.
