Good news the work of many

Editor: Mayor Inkster is quite right to laud the good work of municipal staff and councillors in bringing eight badly-needed social housing units to the Coast (Coast Reporter, Aug. 28).

Mayor Inkster is quite right to laud the good work of municipal staff and councillors in bringing eight badly-needed social housing units to the Coast (Coast Reporter, Aug. 28).

He might have noted, though, that the good news he is celebrating is the result of the work of a host of agencies and individuals, including federal and provincial governments, Community Services, Construction Aggre-gates, Vancouver Coast-al Health, local contractors, service clubs and dozens of generous individuals. None of it would have happened, however, if the Arrowhead Centre Society hadn't started the ball rolling six years ago when we petitioned Ottawa to turn over the RCMP building to the District so Arrowhead might have a home.
