Interesting Summer So Far!

*****TRANSFORMING CLIENTS INTO CITIZENS******

Dear Reader:

I am back home tomorrow after a dozen glorious days in St. Andrews, New Brunswick with kids, grandkids and inlaws.... something refreshing about spending time with folks between the ages of 2 and 90!!! Great way to refresh and challenge perspectives.... recuperate from open heart surgery and more than four weeks in hospital....

I'll be glad to be back.... so much to do and write about......So lets get this blog back on track.......

This week's submission will begin with a discussion of the potential structure of organized development in Shelburne County and some of the options available to ensure public participation and accountability in the process....... We'll take a brief look at creating a functional RDA, the role that a group like Team Shelburne might play, how a properly mandated Shelburne County Industrial Commission might help and what to do with inefficient and ineffective regional provincial government agencies dealing with education, community services, economic development, health and more...... I can hardly wait! We might even ask some questions about the management of marine resources and fisheries......

SO.... WHAT IS A TROLL?

From Wikipedia....

"Do not feed the trolls" and its abbreviation DNFTT redirect here. For the Wikipedia essay, see "What is a troll?".
In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional or disciplinary response[1] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[2]

Tune in on Friday......

If we all want a prosperous community, we need a development authority or a committee or what ever you want to call it. That sends out letters to companies all across Canada, letting them know that land is cheap and avaiable in Shelburne county. This is a good place to move your company to. Even if one in a thousand letters moves to Shelburne and brings 25 jobs the developer will have done it's job.

11:59, Remember Frank's membership in Global Corenet that runs an expen$e of anywhere from 4-6,000 a year? We're still trying to figure what he's accomplished on these yearly trips, and if he's still a member. We think your advice on using the mails would have accomplished as much if not more.

I wrote comment 1 . Sorry about the poor spelling and the typos.

There are trade magazines for almost any business, where you can contact information about many businesses, that could be sent letters to. The lod boys school should have been sold via a lot of letter writing. That old boys school was a real gold mine for someone.

A hard working letter writer might attract a few new businesses here. The big problem is the recession we are in now.

8:04 Great input - the trade mags would have brought lots of attention to both the Base and Boy School lands.
It's encouraging we have a chance to put all of this behind us and start a fresh page in revitalizing the county. We've got lots to work with, the key is to find the right mix of people to lead the way!

Well, if Ralston develops anything profitable on that sight, by some strange occurence, I'll be surprised if the Shelburne community sees much of the benefit. Their has been one hell of a lot of b#llsh$t blaffies brain goin' on round here.

It would seem that Frank is the author of every sinister event in Shelburne County.Most of the problem lies within. Sure Frank is a liabilty!
Why cannot we come to realization that evil lurks in the most unlikely places!WE have much housecleaning to do!Ed is gathering volumes of information but I have yet to hear anyone or group willing to take the next step. We had better clean up the corruption revealed in this blog if we expect business to come here.Even the Soprano's would not hazard operating here.
Local politicians have to be made to be accountable.The Mayor...where is he?His backers must be truly proud of themselves.Get a life people.................
