Political mud's baked dry

I was disappointed to read the recent letter from Ramesh Ranjan, laying various accusations at the feet of our local MLAs John Yap and Teresa Wat.

Much like the other opposition parties upset at the result of the May election, Mr. Ranjan is now trying to throw mud drier than Richmond's ground after a July full of sun.

There's nothing new or earth-shattering in his claims.

It's been investigated, publicly reported, and action was taken by the government to fix it.

In fact, it was a key discussion point in the last election - which the BC Liberals won handily.

There's one other thing that comes to mind here. Mr. Ranjan is on record as recently serving as the communications director for the Richmond-Steveston BC Conservative candidate in the last election.

It's clear to me he's trying to re-fight a vote conducted only two months ago.

The voters have spoken. It's time to move on.
