September 2, 2010 It sure feels like an election is just around the corner. Have you been watching the race that’s forming in Toronto for the Mayor’s chair? It’s all a little bizarre. Statements have been made as if they are facts, and then within a day or two they are recanted. I’m not sure why it’s so hard to get something straight. Just answer the question with the simple truth. What a concept! Hopefully we won’t get mired in the mud on the local scene. Our two representatives (whomever they shall be) will hopefully continue down the path that was laid out before them by their predecessors. This is by no means an easy task. Once you’re elected, you have to make decisions that should be for the ‘general good’, even if at times you may not be totally committed to it. That can work on you. Then, of course, there is that ‘Mayor job’ that a bunch of people seem to want. The job is one of trying to make everyone who is elected be responsible for their constituents and act in the best interest of Chatham-Kent. This is a huge job. You’re kind of like a cheerleader for a group of folks who sometimes don’t care to cheer for anything. So, what should we do between here and the election? Well, I think we have to listen to what everyone is saying so that we can make an informed decision when we enter the voting booth. Now is the time to seriously think about what is coming up in November. |
