Three Candidates Run on Vitriol
Letter to the editor

The letter from Cathy Schlicht last week was revealing – not about the candidates she slammed, but the hostility she displays against decent people who have somehow gotten in her way.

I'm glad Ms. Schlicht made clear who she is supporting – Diane Greenwood, Bill Barker and Justin McCusker. It is valuable information to know which candidates are fueled by anger and vitriol. I attended a candidate forum, and Ms. Schlicht's candidates had little to say beyond criticizing everyone else.

I am fed up with attacks from a few people like Ms. Schlicht. She in no way represents the community's views, and I'm tired of all the negative remarks. Freedom of speech does not give her the right to say whatever she wants whenever she wants or to give her opinion as if it were fact. Knowing who Ms. Schlicht supports for city council gives insight about who NOT to vote for!
