Up the path we went asking questions on all different things that came to mind, I asked what was wrong with the watering system, the reply was, "that's operational" don't worry about that.

Next I said those tomatoes look crook, the reply was, "it's operational", not your problem.

About half way up the Garden Path I stopped and looked back and saw that all the experienced gardeners were gone and asked what happened to them, "it's operational" none of your business.

This was when I stopped following and looked back down the path and found that the garden was dying.

I turned around and I could see one group scratching there heads. Further UP THE GARDEN PATH I could see a smaller group holding hands skipping along following the Mayor and Executive.

We can't let the next councillors put up with what I and the majority of the other councillors have had to deal with. It's time to change the guard because it is our community at stake here.

Our city is dying, council's experienced workers are losing their jobs and not being replaced. We need to fix up our backyard and move on.

I feel that the community is the last thing that's important to the current Mayor and executive. Sadly.
