Dear Editor:
Congratulation are in order to the Osoyoos Times and Reporter/Photographer Richard McGuire on the two fine pieces of investigative journalism in the Aug. 12 edition.
The article on Dick Harris , Conservative MP for Cariboo-Prince George, whose expense claims for the year were the second highest of any MP in B.C. was a well-researched report on a timely and important issue.
The piece on Page 2 about the refusal of the B.C. government to release information on the nature of the remains or artifacts found in the archeological investigation at the former Haynes Point Provincial Park campground is astonishing and unacceptable.
Thank you for asking for documents that would answer the question that we all have about that episode, which was, “What was found and why can’t the findings be revealed to the public?”
Thank you and keep up the good work and outstanding investigative journalism on these two important issues.
Michael Ryan
Osoyoos, B.C.
