Dear Editor:
Our recent election that elected two new councillors and mayor to New Westminster was so well done and such a contrast to the demonstration of the past, I cannot resist to tell the world how proud I am of the dignity, the respect and how fortunate we are to have two talented gentlemen competing for the position that will guide the future destiny of our beautiful little city.
You will note during the contest: no mud-slinging, but praise for each other was evident, a refreshing approach to electioneering, most impressive throughout.
I believe this type of democracy will have impressed our younger voters to take part in future elections. Hopefully the civility of it all will have registered as a class act.
Thank you, Mayor Wright and Mayor Cote.
Ray Pigeau, New Westminster
