Bernadette Clement and Mike Bedard proved my previous statements to be true! I omitted the opening statements because of the obvious; Hi, I am blah, blah, blah…..and I would like to change the world!
Here’s an example of what I have mentioned previously!
Question #1 – “There are 21 people running for city council and only 10 spots. What do you offer as a candidate that some of the others don’t?
Summary of the Answers (and listen for yourself as there was a lot more said, but was anything important really said?):
Mike Bedard – Special Not: Mike mentioned that there is a need for Current Incumbents and and some new blood to ensure efficiencies and a well-rounded council; all responded with “I agree with Mr. Bedard and then the following statements listed below” . “1) Youthfullness that is currently present in council. 2) The Candidate currently owning and operating a business and 3) an Accounting Background”
Bernadette Clement – “1) I have a legal aid background and 2)my experience as a councillor and volunteer.”
Todd Bennett – “We all need to work together!”
Ooops ” Youth that is NOT currently present in council!
