Thank you for your editorial [鈥�Pssst, Woodfibre LNG and FortisBC workers,鈥� published July 11] pointing out some of the hypocrisy against LNG workers being housed on the 鈥榝loatel.鈥�
To date, there has been a continued narrative based on outdated information that all these employees are a threat to the area. Personally, if I was an LNG worker, I would take personal offence to these biases and feel my own personal liberties were compromised by being forced to stay on the floatel and not be allowed to enjoy any of the amazing recreational opportunities that we enjoy as residents of Squamish.
Personally, I don鈥檛 think Howe Sound is the place for an LNG facility, but it is approved, and the floatel is a viable response to previous direction to keep workers out of the local rental market.
It鈥檚 time for this council to move on and focus on more pressing issues of the day.
