BARS ARE WORSE

I am sick of the NIMBY protests! These people are trying to get help.
These are not the people we should be worried about. I would be more
concerned about the crime and drug addicts who are attracted to pubs
and bars. I've been to bars in Calgary and I've seen what goes on in
them, and it is much worse than anything in a recovery centre. Kudos
to Second Chance and their passion for helping; I hope they can
continue to make a difference in the lives of people in need of what
they offer. Shame on the closed-minded residents of Braeside!
