Which person should we voters put in charge of administering a billion dollars in tax dollars?
These are the three candidates running for school board trustee. 99% of the voters have no idea who they are and what their platform is, so on Oct. 27 they will either not vote or just pick a name at random to “do their civic duty.”
Take Our Poll
Sadly, many voters will delve no further than this.
Voters will probably just pick a name they recognize, one that has been plastered all over the riding in coroplast.
Politicians for sale! Bayshore Shirley, Lowell Green Jr. and other rurals make an appearance at the anarchist Bells Corners Rocks! all-candidates debate.
Standing room only for the ONLY all-candidates debate in College Ward. WECA/LVCA honchos were tricked into allowing it to happen! Tristan, you’re a sly dog!
Rick was raked over the coals for not having the courage to show up – his lame excuses are NOT believable! Poor old Nancy was left to defend Rick’s honour while the councillor and his inner circle drank green champagne at the Ecology Ottawa gala. Rick, you are NOT a gentleman, nor are you an honourable man.
Rick, did you charge the cost of the tickets to the taxpayer? Was Betty Nukem by your side?
No Rick, no problem!
Catherine Gardiner heckled me but didn’t repeat her slanderous whining BS and none of her cowardly Facebook friends dared show their face.
Hopefully cooler heads will prevail before everyone jumps on Alex’s self-serving Community Improvement Plan.
Lots of media types/politicians showed up to film the proceedings, including Carys Mills from the Ottawa Citizen and Jean-Luc Cooke from the Coffee and Company Inc. Community Association.
The Barrhaven-Nepean News sent Rick/Alex buddy Jennifer McIntosh. I realize that there are 23 wards and resources are limited, but the Barrhaven-Nepean News does Bells Corners residents a disservice when it assigns a suck-up-to-Rick “reporter” like Jennifer instead of a REAL journalist like Laura Mueller.
Mike Maguire and other Conservative handlers noisily supported Guy’s loony Rural Referendum idea.
Jim Watson skipped the meeting but sent a mini-Jim to distribute developer-funded propaganda.
There’s a plan to close Moodie from Songbird to Hunt Club? This resident claimed to know about it but couldn’t provide a reference to curious journalists.
Guy made a good effort, but angry CFRA/Ottawa Sun rurals are in a minority in Bells Corners. Most of us think Lowell Green is a sad clown.
So funny that LVCA kingpin Jean-Luc Cooke turned up at the last minute to “sponsor” the debate. No other community association “community leaders” showed up except for Catherine, Terrilyn and Roland. Sad.
Nice fairy tale, Guy! Who is financing you? Tim Hudak? Mike Maguire? Don Robertson? Bayshore Shirley? Lowell Green? Please, ‘fess up.
The deeply-respected widow of Elijah Harper, a private-sector educational entrepreneur or a slick Rick Chiarelli admirer? Make your choice on Oct. 27.
At this point I’m leaning to Harper. Scott is undecided.
Unfortunate that her sign was vandalized. I put it back up.
Rick, even though he’s a rabid fan of Catholic faith-based special privileges, has made no bones about his choice for public school board trustee. He even has a huge Wittet sign on his lawn – what’s with that?
Dumb thieves tried to rob the Tim Hortons across from the Esso at 4 a.m. the other night.
After trying unsuccessfully to pry open the door with a crow bar they smashed the glass and went to work on liberating the safe.
Too bad they didn’t realize the night baker had locked herself in the can and had called the cops. Result: the guy who just got out of prison after a four-year sentence may be going away for a l-o-n-g time. His sidekick might get a slap on the wrist. The courageous doughnut-baker is back on the job after a short holiday, apparently not traumatized by her close encounter with the thugs.
Ready for this year’s Psycho Fair?
