Where were you when the town hall meeting was taking place?
Almost every week you read about disgruntled residents complaining about high taxes. When an opportunity arises to come face-to-face with our mayor and councillors, the turnout is disgraceful. The mayor and councillors figure this is easy; the residents really don’t care enough to turn out. So we get more of the same.
When you, the residents, are willing to take the time to attend a meeting, then and only then will you see change. Let’s not grow weary of doing good and demanding that our mayor and councillors do the same. Let this city be a centre for all people in all wage brackets — especially our young and seniors.
We have to build a system that is sustainable. At this time, we are heading in the other direction! Let common sense rule!
L. Cenaiko, St. Albert
