The Editor,

I recently moved to Port Moody after 29 years in Burnaby. As I get to know the Tri-Cities better, I have been struck by the natural beauty all around — the access to parks, trails, rivers, lakes and the ocean is incredible.

But I have also been struck by the seemingly unfettered amount of development that is chopping into the green spaces at an alarming rate. More is not necessarily better. You do not need to keep cramming people into the area.

We have an enviable natural resource here — don’t let it be squandered in the name of greed and financial gain.

Cathy Morton, Port Moody
