Outrage

No previous post has generated as much anger as the one about the Mayor's order not to allow planting by students in the town's parks on the day of the Mayor's Anti-Litter Campaign.

It was not a Council decision.

It would certainly not be mine. I believe there are probably at least two others who feel the same. We will not know if there are more unless we provide them a reason to indicate their position.

There were Councillors who saw a partnership with Neighbourhood Network as a good thing but no vote was taken .Instead the matter was sidelined by being referred to staff. No report has been received by Council.

The date for the tree planting is April 24th.

Council meets on Tuesday April 13th. There is time for Council to reverse the Mayor's order.

Time for residents to make their voices heard.

    Mayor Morris tries to stay away from trees, especially when she sees someone carrying a clothsline.

    Why doesn't someone swear out a bench-warrant for the Mare's detention?

    And follow this up with an eviction notice - walk her out the door with all her photographic souvenirs.

    What is with this "order" business?

    Is this a democracy or some tin-pot totalitarian excuse for a government?

    Are people afraid of a despot? One that is totally deranged!

    SHAME!!!

    Is the mare so egocentric that she considers the Mayor's Anti-Litter Campaign as a sacred day?
    I would like everyone to know that I am absolutely disgusted that there is no partnership with Neighbourhood Network and that we would look a gift horse - young enthusiastic planters - in the mouth (and the mare should be familiar with horses' mouths). The mare et al spout all the time about how they have the citizens' interests uppermost in their minds yet they decline a wonderful opportunity to benefit many, probably even all of us at some point in our lives.
    The tree-planting "verboeten" edict is just another shining example of the mare's et al's concern for us, the voters.
    The mare should be strung up from a tree with a length of her own washing line!
