SPENDING YOUR MONEY FOR EGREGIOUS SELF PROMOTION!

Free skating parties, free swimming parties, free BBQ’s, and wasteful self promoting newsletters that talk about I, Me, I, to self-promote councillor’s. But here is the thing. They are not free. Councillor’s pay for this self-gratification and self-promotion out of their budgets. So it is YOU that as a taxpayer are paying for them to promote themselves. Now is it important to self-promote? Sure of course it is. Is it important to keep residents informed about what work a Councillor is doing? Of course it is, but not a cost of over $5,000 per mailing filled with endless babble. So here is my promise to you. Councillor’s make a good living and as your Councillor I will pay out of my own pocket for good will community events. As your Councillor I will do my best to keep you informed using modern technology and keep mailing to a tight focused format to inform you on important issues and save costs. The theme here is that as your Councillor it will be about you the residents and not about I.
