McNeil rides the Magic bus

Well I finally took some time to watch the Council meeting that took place yesterday. The first important thing that caught my attention was the update that CAO McNeil gave about their field trip to Queens Park. He boasted that they got some great FaceTime with key people and they specifically promoted four issues.

Guess what was missing from those four issues? That’s right… no mention of the outstanding proposal for our Public High School! Think for just a moment about all of the time, money and effort that our Council and Staff put behind the Catholic School Board proposal and look what the results were. Now, compare it to the efforts NOT being made to influence the decision for a Public High School.

Not only is this disappointing, but it is also offensive. Brian Smith has demonstrated a totally irresponsible attitude in relation to obtaining funding for our Public High School.

I remain hopeful that Minister Dunlop sees the importance of this proposal based on the very professional efforts put forth by the school board.

For those that did not watch the meeting, I should also paint a picture for you. Andrew McNeill boasted about the Town of Wasaga Beach Transit Bus being parked in front of the front doors at Queens Park. I wonder if he realizes the majority of MPP’s and staff do not use that entrance? Still, they did get some good photos for the scrap book.
