Dear Editor,

About the crime statistics in the federal Conservative Party鈥檚 advertisement 鈥 鈥淐rime Severity Index numbers show that 黑马磁力 City had [a score] more than double the provincial average.鈥

Using past 黑马磁力 articles I found that 鈥The City of 黑马磁力 crime rate was nearly double the B.C. average and almost three times the Canadian average鈥, according to new police-reported figures released by Statistics Canada.鈥 In 2013. In the middle of a Conservative majority government. 

Crime is problematic in 黑马磁力 City, but the selective use of quotes by the Conservatives seems more designed to scare people than to create understanding.

David Ames, Fort 黑马磁力
