Voters’ wishes ignored by all governments

Re: “Voters’ interests can’t be ignored,” Dec. 30. Fair comment. I pretty much agree with the failure of the feds to recognize the public’s concerns and wishes when making policy decisions.

Fair comment. I pretty much agree with the failure of the feds to recognize the public’s concerns and wishes when making policy decisions.

However, you should have included all other forms of government, as well, since the provincial government, Capital Regional District and Greater Victoria municipal governments are equally at fault.

A perfect example is the forcing through of the sewage treatment plans, when a clear majority of scientists and the public are opposed.
