1) "They all lie." This is a quote emblazoned on T-shirts/pullovers by environmentalist Pat Potter.
2) Their promises are wind. Meaningless doesn't even come close to describing their promises.
3) They are incestuous. In other words getting a request turned down by a municipal Council almost guarantees it will be turned down by the Region and the GRCA. Way too much overlap in membership.
4) Never accept their dates for delays. Almost always these parties interpret a "delay" as meaning for forever.
5) If you ask a question assume their answer will be a lie. This prevents disappointment as well as future expectations of good behaviour on their part.
6) Make these "lessons" available to the parties listed above. Let them know that you appropriately have zero confidence in them.
7) Let the parties know that despite these "lessons" you will keep track of future promises, statements, lies delays and commitments.
8) Never apologize for any of these lessons. Thirty plus years of despicable behaviour can not be undone by a future few years of good behaviour.
9) Laugh at their outlandish claims and junk science regularly.
10) Never feel the need to prove them wrong. Yes it is satisfying but it only encourages even more lying from them.
we are in a Bureaucracy and Democracy is dying! socialists are in charge !!
