Dear Editor:
I am deeply disturbed at council's decision to axe the Royal Lancers.
The City of New Westminster is steeped deeply in tradition and heritage. To axe this tradition makes no common sense.
In a time that tradition is so important, the idea of axing this event is beyond belief.
The men that participate in this tradition have given up their time to carry on such a wonderful tradition, and the reason for having it no more is that "they are going to focus on the children."
Well explain to me how this does not focus on the children, it is all about the children.
