LETTER TO THE EDITOR | Dudley a champion for transit change

Editor, It is time to start basing our opinions about government agencies on facts, not emotions. In a recent letter to the editor, a writer speculated that Scott Dudley sounds to her like a bully. He is an official from Oak Harbor trying to bring accountability to a badly mismanaged Island Transit. The problems there are deep and run from the top down.

Editor,

It is time to start basing our opinions about government agencies on facts, not emotions.

In a recent letter to the editor, a writer speculated that Scott Dudley sounds to her like a bully. He is an official from Oak Harbor trying to bring accountability to a badly mismanaged Island Transit. The problems there are deep and run from the top down.

Scott Dudley is anything but a bully. In late 2011, Dudley learned that a man in Vancouver needed a kidney to save his life. He donated a kidney in 2012 to save the life of a stranger. Perhaps it’s time to speculate that the problems at Island Transit deserve such a champion to clean them up. And a public willing to face facts.
