I'm curious if the writer would be saying the same thing if Trump said he preferred a conservative government. A quick Google search, as well as searching the writer's articles on this site could lead most rational people to think that the writer is a vehement anti Conservative, and would be spitting every Trudeau-esque anti Conservative phrase that is top of mind if Trump did indeed say he was a fan of the CPC.

So Sampson signed a note saying he wouldn’t share photos, was told not to share photos and he went ahead & …..shared photos? Then he said he didn’t think that sharing the pic would be a problem. Is he stupid or is he entitled? And how on earth did he get his hands on a part of the RCMP uniform? Is there seriously no protocols in place to ensure that the only people wearing RCMP uniforms are RCMP members? If I’m a member I’m furious that a part of my organizations kit can be worn by someone who hasn’t gone through the training & sacrificing that members go through. If Sampson wants to wear the gear, become a member. Until then, follow the damn rules!

An economic “full court press” based on 60+ year old infrastructure. Another shining example of incompetence of the elected boobs we call Mayor & Council.

Which approach should council take when deciding on a new Civic Core plan?

Poll |

Robert Barwise commented

Do these paper pushers think that there's a never ending vat of cash for these projects that a minority of PG people will actually use? How about we focus on what every single person in PG needs? Fresh water. New power lines. Better roads. The Downtown Core has been revitalized for 2 decades and we are still doing it? I humbly submit that the bureaucracy is out of touch with the average PG voter. We also still have a $22 million dollar parkade to pay for. How about we start looking for a Mayor and council that actually has a spine and holds the bureaucracy to account for their fallacies, and get to work on things that every single PG resident needs.

This has been an issue known for years & finally it's getting some attention. We have pipes that need replacing, and like it or not, we are looking at another tax increase. Time for City Hall to tighten their belts. No more raises, no more nice new buildings, no more junkets, no more lunch budgets, no more worrying about the needs of the few down & outers & no more $22 million dollar parkades until we take care of the infrastructure we have now. Water in our taps & flushing toilets are an absolute necessity. Sorry City staff, you may have to look at layoffs. The horror! It's time for some hard decisions. Question is, will the current Mayor & council finally grow up and make these hard & sure to be unpopular decisions or will they be more focused on their political careers & distract us with Cariboo Rocks the North?

Well since we are looking at "nice to have's" like moving Mr PG downtown to the tune of 100's of thousands of dollars, that must mean that the parkade debacle has been paid for, our sewer and fresh water pipes must all be replaced and working fine, and the mess at the LPBE has been solved. Awesome! Oh wait...It's not??? Well then what in the world are we doing looking at what can only be described as a make work vanity project? Does anyone really think that putting Mr PG downtown will magically solve the issues in the downtown core? Give me a break!
