I agree. I think Lloyd Ferguson has been a solid performer.. He knows his way around a spreadsheet. He has voted on items from a city-wide perspective and even stated that his own constituents might not be happy with his vote. He is not afraid to ask appropriate questions, and to ask them appropriately.

I have said all this and more to him via personal emails.

For me, this takes nothing away from my complaint. It has already been stated that if Tim Horton's had submitted a bid and won, what might the implications have been? Let's say two of the other vendors heard the same Bill Kelly Show I heard. What if they said it gave the appearance of favouritism? What if they got legal? I'm not suggesting any wrongdoing whatsoever, but I am saying emphatically that we should not put our city in legal jeopardy because of an inappropriate and sloppy statement.

I still don't like the concrete on City Hall. I still like the way Lloyd handled himself during the stadium debate. I have commented on both. I'm permitted to comment on things I see. I'm even permitted to make a formal complaint when I think that it is the appropriate action to take. So are all citizens.
