Re: Celia Fisher's letter (Coast Reporter, July 3). I am also dismayed that Ms. Fisher has so little accountability to her community. VisionQuest must be accountable to neighbours and community.

I'm writing this letter because of a disturbing article I read in the June 19 issue of Coast Reporter. A severed bear head was found and, according to a conservation officer, it was discovered after June 15, when bear hunting season was over.

We would like to give an important message to all those who donate their grocery receipts to the food banks - the receipts must have the date on them. This is required because the receipts cannot be more than one year old.

I recently attended the Sunshine Coast Trail Society information meeting in Roberts Creek. I consider Mount Elphinstone to be sacred, a place of peace and quit, a place to walk or ride my mountain bike rapt in awe and amazement.

After reading Ian Jacques' column (Coast Reporter, June 26) I feel I must comment on his words. Recently I was in hospital next to a young woman who, as she was on her way home from work, had been grievously injured on our highway.

Water shortage, its preservation and the protection of our watershed were the subjects of your June 12 editorial. The editorial was important and timely.

It's been two months plus three days since the harmonized sales tax (HST) came into effect in B.C. That's about the only thing here that is clear sort of.

Why should we support our paramedics in their fight for a new collective agreement? The answer is pretty obvious - they help us at some of the most critical events in our lives.

I find it quite irritating that some of the ferry traffic use the old North Road to beat the traffic.

A while ago my teacher wanted us to do a project on how we could improve are highways.
