Re: 鈥淐ity urged to keep casino on the table,鈥� Jan. 17.
The above story appeared on page A3. On page A2 the same day was a story about a 71-year-old former executive director of the Nanaimo Community Hospice Society, which offers free compassionate care for dying patients and their families. She was jailed for four months for racking up casino charges and cash advances on the hospice credit card.
Gambling addictions activate the same neural pathways as heroin. I聽commend Victoria Mayor Lisa Helps for not supporting a casino for Victoria.
