It’s the Home Show this weekend too. Hoping for less hot tubs/rvs and more gadgets and gizmos.

The idea about these letters is to show how Moccasin Flats has been detrimental to the Millar Addition.... It's crazy to see all these accusations from one place when "It" happens all over Prince George. Why is one part of town complaining about "air quality" when all of PG to some extent to another has been subjected to some of the worst air quality because of the PG Pulp Mill? and then there's Threats, vandalism, theft, verbal abuse etc... This is not new to Prince George. It literally happens all over this city and that comes down to policing! As for the two seniors, I personally know that two seniors were attacked a couple years ago at the new apartment buildings across from the casino in their own home and no one batted an eye at that. It's horrible and yet it happens. What makes the richy, pricey Millar addition an exemption to the rest of PG? It seems to me that for some reason, they are more important than the rest of us low lifes that also chose PG to be our home.

We seem to forget a few years ago it was the City of PG that wanted the homeless to go to the end of 5th ave (Moccasin Flats) because having this demographic camp beside the Safety Hub across from the court house was a complete eye sore and as soon as they left, the city put up fencing to keep them out.

Every where our homeless demographic goes or tries to go is met with disgust and controversy. They are met with keyboard warriors that can say anything from the comfort of a home where their computer or phone is with them. The city gets involved and the mayors platform had intentions with dealing with this and never really has. Soooooo much and still nothing. at least this came up and hopefully they can move forward with this temporary solution.

Shutting down the slum via better housing options should be the point.
