"THANKS DOC HUNTER"????

No. No. This farce was brought to you courtesy of Pat Sobeski. It was his brain-wave to get council to duck its responsibility for the matter and hire someone else to do their dirty work for them.

Don't blame Hunter for doing what he was paid to do by his employer. He's just another toady like George Bedard. These guys are just the hired hands council uses to deflect criticism from themselves.

We need a truly independent investigation of Info Energy ...and a whole lot of other things too. This council is dirty.

What is the point of meeting with anybody after they figured out they couldn't look at it?

250.00/hr enough of a point for you?

He couldn't spell Integrity?

Maybe he needed the money for spelling lessons:)

Give the guy a break. It's a typo.

What I'm wondering is why he's typing his own invoices. If he's such a big cheese why doesn't he at least have letterhead stationery?

You might almost think he was just a retired school teacher running a small business out of his house. :)

I'd forgotten about the new BIA office. According to the newspaper it's quite the little palace the BIA princess has got herself. I wonder how the retailers that are just scraping by feel about that?

jim bender said...

That same lady has told landlords not to rent property to certain people...according to one landlord I know...His place sat empty for 6 months becasue of her.
It's time to kiss the BIA goodbye.
She does nothing, and is costing us a huge amount of money for nothing in return.
Downtown is alive because of people who have determination, not because of the rip off BIA.

It's high time the BIA was put under the microscope. With the assistance of Council the BIA has presided over the deterioration of our downtown and has risen to become just another level of government for the retailers to deal with.

Any downtown success stories are entirely the result of hard work on the part of the retailer. The BIA deserves no credit.
