LACK OF LEADERSHIP

You might have noticed from the May 13 posting, the the Councillor who moved the motion to leave the demoliton control bylaw up to the next Council, instead of showing leadership and doing something about it during this term of Council was Deputy Mayor Bill Hill.

To the best of my knowledge he is the only declared candidate for Mayor in the October 2010 municipal elections.

My partner and I, as have all Melancthonites, received his monthly mumbo jumbo newsletters on green paper advising us (and I am paraphrasing here) we should vote for him based on experience and leadership.

If the experience we are looking for is this......


then yes, I wholeheartedly agree, vote for Bill.

If you are looking for someone with vision and leadership we need another candidate to step up....

Don't forget, Bill says one of the reasons he can't do anything about the demolition of our homesteads, culture and taxbase is because it might cost $10,000.o0.

Yet he is also the politician who, in the 2009 budget, lobbied and got $12,000.00 set aside to help people with gas money to get to school...

WHAT you ask, yes I say.

Ask him at the next meeting of Council why paying people gas money to get to school would be more important than protecting the loss of (to date) $5 million off the assessment in homesteads that have been demolished to date.
