APRIL 20, 2020 – It’s boggling that an entity that is supposed to serve public health is boycotting this newspaper and refusing to release info that supposedly is meant to save and protect lives.

The problem with voting people in like Bernadette Clement, Elaine Macdonald, and Maurice Dupelle is that you gradually kill your community.
