Hurray!

Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts has proven once again why she is just about the best politician to appear in Canada in living memory.

The Atira Women's Resource Society has been awarded $1Million from Surrey to complete their new shelter and home for "women-at-risk" and their children.

This is a great, "good news" story.

Read it here and then email Watts (mayor@surrey.ca) first to thank and congratulate her, and then to ask why no other mayor in the region has had the wisdom or courage to step up to the plate like this for a very long time.
