Morden - So You Want To Be A City ?
So
everyone is aching, itching, and yelling for Morden to become a city are they?
I see little evidence, or hear much talk of it at all.
Don’t
cities have zoos, high rises, potholes, rapid transit, universities, traffic
congestion, stadiums, large areas, casinos, patio restaurants, daily papers, food
vendors, concert halls, rampant crime, overpasses, Police Homicide units, large
grand hotels, food banks, and such?
So,
Mr. Mayor and council members, with 2 gas bars, 2 furniture stores, 2 car
washes, and a Tim Horton’s, just how do we qualify for city status here in
Morden ?
Council
seems to thinks we can lure people and business here by just calling ourselves
a city. Smartphones and Google have the capacity to easily obliterate those
kinds of myths.
With this
mayor and council’s bungling of the Arlington file, the Humane Society
file, the Minnewasta Lake development file, can we have any assurance they can
handle City files?
The
mayor and every councilor should be mandated to spend one week at the Chamber’s
tourist booth for a town/city reality check by tourists. That might
end the madness of it all!
