The ousting of local Conservative candidate Brent Barr is a stunner.
I’m so glad municipal politics is not tied to the political party system. I don’t consider myself to be an indoctrinated member of any political party. I have voted all over the map since I cast my first ballot at 18. If our current City Council was beholdin’ to party ideology or an oligarchical master, would the best interests of our community be served? I think not.
