The Editor,
Re: "Election victory for Garden City Lands," News, Dec. 2.
In a landmark case in 1990, the Supreme Court of Canada defined "hate" as "unusually strong and deepfelt emotions of detestation, calumny and vilification."
Recently in this paper, a Richmond councillor labeled a letter as "hate." That's no small matter.
The letter is titled, "The facts disagree with Councillor Evelina HalseyBrandt."
It uses evidence and logic to address previous labeling by the same councillor.
Readers can see for themselves - and listen to audio of the primary sources - by googling the "Richmond's Garden City Lands" blog at http: //wp.me/p97QM-1yJ.
