It is my opinion, as I have attended quite a few of the council meetings that this was all clearly documented, and that the council passed the duties on the committee and since the Mayor was the only one left on the committee he got the tasks done

As I recall ALL of his first year salary was donated and made public as well.

Is there not a spot at Couchiching Beach Park that could be fenced and used as a dog park? I would suggest that many folks walk their dog in that park every day and it really would be nice to have an off leash area.

Thankyou LOIS - Finally someone suggests that the duly elected Mayor has integrity and is well able to deal with this Confidential situation. Trust the Mayor - he is a great leader.

I love to read and this article explains a lot - esp. WHY the Bronze figures are to be separated and displayed this way and the WALL provides a space for all the new plaques and modern day explanations of who, what and why.... "What we have seen in the final rendering demonstrates a strong commitment to honouring the First Nations of the area. It positions history to metaphorically suggest a new and better way forward for all as suggested in the text we drafted for the monument wall," reads the report written by Guy Freeman, principal of the agency."This reimagined statuary honours the significant contributions of the Chippewas of Rama, the Huron-Wendat and the Anishinaabeg. Placing Samuel de Champlain in the distance behind the centre wall structure and removing the religious figure is a metaphor signalling the desire and need to move forward to a new era of community and friendship."Well done Orillia Matters for clear reporting.

I have already addressed city Council personally last fall, and I have written texted or emailed most of the counselors of my obvious agreement and the fact that we need to move forward with truth and reconciliation, and consider a new formation for Champlain and the other bronze figures.
