To the editor:
Re: MLA Norm Letnick’s column: Fuelling Competition At The Gas Pumps.
I agree with his comments but suggest he let people know there are already co-op’s in the area that would like to expand into Kelowna.
As a member of Armstrong Regional Cooperative I agree with Mr. Letnick’s comments. Co-operatives are owned by the members and the profits are returned to the members each year.
Given that I currently have to purchase fuel; I would much rather support a co-operative than one of the big oil companies.
Last year my rebate was 8 per cent of my purchases.
Perhaps your readers would be interested in finding out more information about Armstrong Regional Cooperative which is already located in the Shuswap and Okanagan.
