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 !)

Evening News SOARING SALARIES (CHBC VIDEO)
Episode Description Vernon taxpayers are surprised and disappointed to learn how many civic employees make more than $75,000 a year.
Vernon's mayor spouts the greatest amount of nonsense that I have ever heard.Is it nonsense or distortion of the facts? He says the increases are on a/c of unions,expansion of services and overtime. None of these trumped up excuses are true. With the hiring of additional fire dispatchers in 2008,Lysholm said there would be no extra cost because this would eliminate the overtime.The new chief used the same line in 2009. They have not expanded services at the City-the quality has gone down. Gous and Lippert stop all attempts to have an external review and thye budget process is a sham-what advice did they accept-nothing!We get what we deserve from failing to get out to vote-a bunch of people that no employer would hire-lets hope that next election people will turn out and vote.
