On the matter of that budget – It didn’t get any better.

Council just could not stop the spending.

At the mid afternoon break the budget that started out at 7.08%, wiggled up to 7.12 before lunch and kept on rising to 7.14%

As one listens to this council it becomes very clear that they have no interest in reducing the spending.

Ward 6 Councillor Angelo Bentivegna beavered away at cutting somewhere had no luck – none of his motions made any yardage.

And it’s not over yet.

They are going to take a break at 3:30 for a CLOSED session

    I personally, due to hard work have the means, how long I will continue to pay is another question. I know quite a few people who are living quite happily in South America also Eastern Europe I could even move to Texas, I will wait and see what happens Federally before deciding. I know I’ve had quite enough of Trudeau and his followers.
