To the best of my recollection, don't hold me to it. the sum raised was not even a hundred dollars. It doesn't belong to the town.
There is no string of bullies. It's a witches coven.
When I asked in Council about the Market Code of Conduct, I had no recollection of Councillor Humphryes being Council's liason with the Market. Probably becauseIdon't know what that means. .
We are going to have to review the Market Bylaw. I'm pretty sure it's intent is not to give a person or group any kind of power over the vendors.
The connection between the Market, the Culture Centre. board the Friend of the Petch House., and Oh. yes. Oak Ridges Moraine Trust or Foundations whichever one of the two or both. and the not- for- profit Jazz Festival. ...is people.... the same people or relatives popping upin all the same places.
The jam lady intends to make the Farmers Market a cultural affair this year. There will be a connection to the Culture Centre.
The Culure Centre regards the Jazz Festival a Cultural event worthy of support.
A husband of the last person appointed/elected to the Culture Centre Board is connected to the Oak Ridges Moraine thingamajig.
The idea to accommodate the Farmers Market in the Church Street School in the winter was because of a connection on the board. .
It's a fiefdom ....presided over by a bunch of buccaneers ....without t a peg-leg or a hook between them.
The common theme between them is exploitation of Town of Aurora. assets.
Everything they can get their hands on and then some.How can the politics be maximized.? First imperative. hang on tight to the Church Street School. Second imperative...muzzle the market vendors. .
When we took back the town hall, ...other assets were outstanding. '''still to be recovered. .
As someone alluded to in a recent comment there appears to be about two dozens of vultures circling overhead Aurora and making their nests in our fair community.
ReplyDeleteIt's unfortunate that the provincial government has a few years ago banned the use of pesticides and herbicides. The latter has resulted in the millions of dandelions you see gracing our grasslands.
Were the former still available we might be able to make a concerted effort to eradicate the vultures.
What I cannot understand, for the love of any deity you care to call out to, what is the vicarious thrill to hold POWER over vendors at a Farmers' Market, or to fence off a portion of a public town park at a music show, or, for that matter, to charge $45 per head to attend a dolled-up tea party at the Centre?
Are these vultures really that bored that they can find no better use for their time, and possibly for what little talent they might possess?
There is one constant. No matter how many times they get caught going over the top, there will be no apology. Noticed that with Bruce Cuthbert. Hope he hasn't caught the disease.
ReplyDelete@7:52 The allure, methinks, is that the more that they control, particularly as it relates to institutions/events that cater to seniors (aka the people who vote), the better their chances are to manage the message to them, and to get their votes in the next election. That, is what this is all about.
ReplyDeleteThe sound of ' oinking ' fills the spring air.
ReplyDeleteOkay... The intent was to not grant power over the vendors. However there needs to be some form of "management" otherwise you have anarchy. In order to create unity, a form of standardization is needed. The problem is they choose to call it a code of conduct. If they made it the "small print " on an application they would had less push back from the community.
ReplyDeleteAs a community, should we care that vendors are asked to sign such a document? There are retailers (especially if they are franchise stores) that are signing similar documents. Do you care?
A Simple Question
ReplyDeleteWhen did Aurora grant the Jazz Fest the authority to sell the right to outside vendors to use the Town Park while excluding resident taxpayers from gaining access to the park or vendors?
"The connection between the Market, the Culture Centre. board the Friend of the Petch House., and Oh. yes. Oak Ridges Moraine Trust or Foundations whichever one of the two or both. and the not- for- profit Jazz Festival. ...is people.... "
ReplyDeleteSo, no facts, just the usual allusions to cults, cabals, and conspiracies.
