Robert Hobson is the new president of the Union of BC Municipalities(UBCM). Hobson, who has served as vice-president of the association, was elected president this week during the UBCM's annual convention in Penticton. "It is a privilege to be elected to this position," says Hobson. "We have a lot of interesting projects we're going to be working on in the next year." Hobson, who has a seat on Kelowna City Council and also serves as chair of the Regional District of Central Okanagan, feels the upcoming year is a very important one for the UBCM. "The provincial election is happening and no doubt there will be change in B.C. We'll do our best to bring our issues to the table." Hobson's term is for one year.
DON QUIXOTE VS. CITY HALL When an American gets mad, he says "where's my Gun". When a Canadian gets pissed off he says "Where is my pen, I'm going to send a letter to the EDITOR". When the EDITOR won't publish his letter he sets up his own BLOG page. When I received enough support to get a Council Seat the dogma of the establishment became : "Better to have him inside the tent pissing out, than outside pissing in." (Only time will tell !)
