Peace Arch News Letter to the Editor

Even though the Peace Arch News already warned us, I have discovered that most of my South Surrey-White Rock acquaintances were still unaware that under the NDP Government, 35 of the 140 Red Light cameras have been activated to also automatically ticket people for going over the speed limit.  

The first speed camera was activated on 152nd and King George.  Our Surrey Police Chief Lipinsky said that more of these speed cameras will be put into use in Surrey. The NDP will not reveal the velocity threshold that will trigger these cameras.  

In 2023,  over 26,000 BCers were charged over $5 million dollars in speed camera fees. Despite NDP denials, many see this as a cash grab reminiscent of the massively unpopular photo radar program  imposed by the NDP in the 1990s.  Either way, drive safely and watch your speed.  The cameras are watching you.  Rev.

A.B. Simpson was a remarkable Canadian pioneer of the healing ministry. Born on Prince Edward Island on December 15, 1843, Simpson was such a workaholic that he destroyed his health: “I carried a bottle of ammonia (smelling salts) in my pocket for years and would have taken a nervous spasm if I had ventured without it. Again and again, while climbing a slight elevation or going up a stair did the awful and suffocating agony come over me, and the thought of that bottle as a last resort quieted me.”

After moving to New York City, Simpson’s medical doctor gave him three months to live.  But after being prayed for by an Anglican physician, Dr. Charles Cullis, at Old Orchard Camp in Maine, he experienced a remarkable healing of his heart.  Simpson made the following pledge: “As I shall meet Thee in that day, I take the Lord Jesus as my physical life, for all the needs of my body until all my life-work is done; and God helping me, I shall never doubt that He does so become my life and strength from this moment, and will keep me under all circumstances until His blessed coming, and until all His will for me is perfectly fulfilled.”
