I'm happy to advocate for the youth who presented to the town council and mayor in 2013 and were completely ignored by the staff and people we pay to represent us .. I would love to see a lot of people at the town hall cut from the payroll.. and the money re-directed towards a great skatepark venue.. over 36 staff / warm bodies at the 'palace' town hall... and no one wants to make this their priority.. very sad.
A new great skatepark venue is a project that is long overdue and it would enhance quality of life for the youth in this town ... some things are obvious to me .. just common sense and make life better for others ...
And no, a windfarm really doesn't improve anyone's life .. does it? Why advocate for it then? The mayor in this town gets excited about windfarms but ignores the youth skatepark project completely... so I regret voting for him; he's out of touch and he's old and he doesn't matter to me .. none of the elected officials speak to me on what matters here .. they're boring and I don't attend town hall meetings for this reason.
I don't advocate for the wasteful spending that our government, technocrats, bureaucrats and unelected minions carry out .. its offensive... who will champion our youth and their new skatepark project??

Do you like this photo? Because it didn't come cheap: Public Works spent $555,272 on this building wrap on the old Canada Post office in Ottawa, including $82,000 on the design alone, according to documents obtained by the CTF (which you can see at: http://www.taxpayer.com/media/BuildingWrapATIP.pdf)
