Reader: Time to Cut Our Losses and Move On

E-mail Print PDF

Letter to the Editor,

As per information in the latest news reports, the suit brought forward by the Grists requests that the mayor resign and not participate in town governance for a period of seven years; in as much as the town is currently absorbing the mayor's legal costs in this action, and given the recent court decision, it would appear prudent for the mayor to resign his position in the effort to spare the taxpayers of this community further costs and embarrassment; the mayor must be reminded that the citizens of Meaford are no longer responsible for his personal vendettas.

Reader: Meaford's Lawsuit Irresponsible, Reckless

E-mail Print PDF

Editor,

Your headline of February 27th , “Staff Find Funds to Pay Costs Awarded to Georgian Beach Road Defendants,” is misleading.

No one “found” the $711,000 as if it was just casually waiting to be dispersed in the normal pay out of accounts.

No, this money was syphoned out of the savings, pensions, wages, fees and bank accounts of the Municipal taxpayer.
