Welcome to my blog! MY primary objective is to alert my constituents and others in King Township about issues being reviewed at the upcoming Council meetings. I do this as I believe the quality of Council decisions is enhanced when the public is engaged. I hope that residents will make deputations and/or send emails to Council to express their opinion and/or to ask important questions. Also, I include notice of meetings and events which I think are particularly important. I welcome your comments, whether you agree or not with me, and only edit to eliminate inappropriate language.

Update on the GO Whistles
About a week ago I answered a comment on my blog requesting an update about whistle cessation. It has occurred to me that not everyone reads questions & answers so I am repeating it here. It is also consistent with what I have been telling people when I have been door knocking as part of my re-election campaign. There is now firm plan on part of Metrolinx and King Staff as to specific...
