Amalgamation: The sooner the better

Re: “Amalgamation not a done deal,” editorial, Nov. 20.
As a newcomer to the Victoria area and as a former councillor, I am totally surprised at the number of municipalities in the Greater Victoria area. This might have provided better representation in eras gone by, but not in today’s live-and-work scene.
Therefore, I would totally endorse amalgamation, “the sooner, the better,” as an opportunity for planning service delivery.
