Note About Meeting....

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

Readers have been asking about the format of Friday's meeting between the new Ministers and Shelburne County Municipal politicians and staff.....

The public should be aware that this is a chance for municipal politicians and staff to meet and get to know these two Ministers with six portfolios that are important for the future of our communities. Let's hope participants and public observers find this to be a positive event...

My hope is that it generates more frequent and increasing opportunities for productive dialogue in the future. The opportunity for the public to observe and listen to the exchanges during this initial contact is an important breakthrough for the public and hopefully a positive sign of things to come.....

This meeting sounds like a very positive step.It would be my hope that it is well attended. I think that many are critical of the political process without really knowing how it works or can work.All involved have task but it seems for many the job of the voter is finished once the ballot is cast.Keep up the good work!

It takes special people to deal with politics and yes the voter places faith in the ones chosen.Most citizens are hard working parents trying to raise a family with minimum wage jobs who are fortunate if they have the quality time to listen to the radio.Now,those who have time to fathom what has been neglected or mismanaged please work together with intelligent viewpoints to improve matters discussed. GOOD LUCK !

Good day so far... as predicted storm Danny starts to create a damp,windy weekend to attend to indoor chores often neglected... while thinking about various familiar topics at SF hall meeting.
That was a start to what hopefully will be start to openess about financial dealings that have in past been deceivingly managed by politicians and so-called friends. Those with loaded facts keep us informed ,please and thanks for your valuable time....especially Ed and Tim !!!!
Dishonest ones "creep" around and hide their motives but now are nervous.
