Oshawa AG report turns Oshawa upside down
The recent allegations by Oshawa Auditor-General Ron Foster, if true, are not only damaging to the credibility of both financial and administrative decision making at Oshawa City Hall. They have exposed what may be an even more dangerous problem, the possibility of deliberate intervention of senior staff into the political process.
To explain, we need to go back to the months leading up to the last municipal election in 2010. This was a period of considerable turmoil with incumbent Council members on the hot seat over taxes, expenditures and financial decisions. Not the least of those was the purchase of the Cullen Miniatures and the purchase of land for a new Oshawa Works Depot.

Editor:
Rather than using harmful pesticides, here are some natural methods for getting rid of weeds.
1. Pull them: With their roots, it’s easier if the ground is wet or before the sun shines on them.
2. Pour boiling water on them: Use water left over from cooking.

Pesticide Free BC
The Pesticide Free BC website will be off line during the 2013 provincial Election Campaign April 16th – May 14th. The website contains third party advertising because it identifies the party that supports a pesticide ban and the one that continues to ignore BCers. The website will be back on line after the May 14th Election Day.
