"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

Novelty or Innovation

After I finished the last post,I re-called Greg Sorbara  was  s Liberal  MLA for the  Riding as well for aa while. I don't know how many terms.

His name probably slipped my  mind because we never saw much of him in this neck of the woods.
Not even during an election campaign.He didn't have much need for the votes up here.

Noticed he was named Chancellor of York University immediately after the University choae their  own doorstep for a satellite campus.

There's no reason why there should be a connection 

But the whole business of satellite seems odd. Why not a new university.?

Unless ...Holy Toledo Batman...they might be thinking about saving on cost of administration.  

Wouldn't  that be a novelty?

Saving on cost administration? Not a chance!

There was also Bevelaqua (sorry for spelling). I think there have been more Liberal MLAs than PC.

Cllr Gallo is promising a hotel & convention centre. I guess he did not check with the new owner of the current dump about his plans for the future. Sounds as if the decision could be for residences for seniors.

A riding involving 2 distinctive towns could lead to some complex campaign strategy. If the people on my doorstep do not live in Aurora and I have no idea who they might be, they could be wasting their time & mine.
