Dear editor,
As usual the best part of our local papers is the letters section.
The hospital(s) fiasco another sad, absurd, albeit fascinating example of a lack of cohesion in decision-making in the Comox Valley.
Have I missed the letters of protest regarding the fact that these new hospitals will be built as P3s — that stands for public-private partnership?
Otherwise known as bad news for you and me the taxpayer.
If you have a moment, please read the following: www.monbiot.com/2010/11/22/the-uks-odious-debts.
Yes, that’s right, whether we get one, two, three or more it matters not since what we’ll end up with is a giant debt to private corporations that must be paid — and old, outdated hospitals.
Marie Gaudreau,
