Dear editor,
My name is Keith. I'm the character with the motorized bicycle and trailer, the guy with the too-friendly dog. I live on my boat at Fisherman's Wharf.
In the past few months I have been accused of stealing someone's bait, not picking up after my dog, and, yesterday, Sept 11, of stealing a wallet and bicycle.
I am tired. Tired of the harassment; tired of being accused of things I didn't do; tired of feeling scared and intimidated.
I have to do something to try to alleviate this problem so I'm putting out this letter. I publicly give permission for the RCMP to search my boat with or without a warrant or warning. With or without a complaint.
I have nothing to hide and I'm tired of feeling threatened and accused. I am not going anywhere, I'm going to stay right where I am, but the intimidation has to stop.
Keith Dorward
