From out and about, the Morris election rig is out placing Chris Ballard signs on the boulevards.
Last week, the Mayor deputized Candidate Ballard to cut the ribbon at a new business opening in town.
In the last term, the former Mayor was taken severely to task by the current Mayor when she was Deputy- Mayor and Councillor Keane because I was asked to represent the town at the 75th anniversary of Girl Guides in Aurora.
They raised hell and insisted their status at the polls entitled them to first dibs at any such opportunities.
It's another example of do as I say,not as I do. But more interesting still is how Ballard is being pushed ahead of all the loyal followers . I guess maybe they are considered expendable or all used up or something.

"Cowardice asks the question...is it safe? Expediency asks the question...is it politic? Vanity asks the question...is it popular? But conscience asks the question...is it right? And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but one must take it because it is right." ~Dr. Martin Luther King

Maybe Mr. Ballard would like to open the
DON ROBERTS PARKWAY on Nisbet Drive.
What an excuse for a sidewalk - UGLY, UGLY, UGLY!!!!
It adds NOTHING to what was a lovely neighbourhood.
Mr Ballard has a lovely view of it from his home.
The Mayor was not opposed to the idea - maybe she could help him
Seeing as they might not be re-elected, they'll need someone like minded in the new council to update them. Wasn't at all impressed with him yesterday!
