Letters: Hardware store needed in Steveston

A Richmond News reader is at a loss as to why there is now no hardware store in Steveston

Dear Editor,

Who is doing the planning of Steveston?

I cannot buy a spool of thread, needles, a pair of scissors, nails or screws, a hammer, a screw driver, a paint brush, a piece of fabric, a can of paint, duct tape, a small board, any type of rope, a tarp or a bucket.

I have to drive 10 kilometres to a hardware store, no fabric store exists in Richmond, although there is a paint store five kilometres away — yippee.

If I did not have a car I would be really stuck. Many people do not even own a car anymore.

We badly need a home-grown hardware store. 

Can anyone help us?
