Editor,

An open letter to Mayor Brenda Locke:

As for the $12.2 million for tech gear for the NDP Surrey Police Service , I guess this is what it costs to keep up with the Joneses.

Except we have a problem: this equipment comes from the U.S.A. We can not give them any more of our tax dollars while Trump continues to take our jobs, thinks of Canada as the 51st state and continuously tries to destroy our economy.

I am sure that this equipment is available in Canada or from any other country other than the U.S.A.

We are asking our taxpayers to buy products made in Canada – well, so should you.

Glenn Gillard, Surrey
