Town Election
About 10 days ago.. i went for my first election .. since coming to Canada. This town is so small.. you wouldn’t think that we would have to go from one place to another.. to exercise my rights. On top of having to run from one place to another to find out where we were supposed to go .. and vote.. i had to swear in .. and all.
I didn’t mind doing all that.. but there were really no need for so many polling stations.. because there were less than 3000 people in town itself. On top of it.. swearing in .. in front of a line up is definitely a no-no..! it was a ridiculous sight and no privacy at all.
But having said all that.. this is YARMOUTH.. and we all know how things are being run here. What can you expect right..?? Abosulte a waste of manpower.. and a pure waste of the tax payers money as per usual. But the 4 that i had voted for won the election.. so i’m pleased. I told one of the town council that i had voted for .. that all i wanted was transparency.. and i think i speak for everyone in this town.

Swearing in? Really?
