New Council

Regina has a new City Council, and it looks like the majority of them favour action on the Renewable City motion. Even the anti-Renewables Mayor Fougere was defeated.

Ward 6 has a new Councillor.

Congratulations Dan LeBlanc, I wish you all the best in helping to lead our city forward and through this challenging time. pic.twitter.com/7qXpaLUf4p

I am thankful to residents of Ward 1 for electing me as their councillor on Regina City Council. I knocked on thousands of doors and enjoyed hearing from so many people Thanks to @BYoungYqr for her 8 years on council. She can leave knowing she made a difference. #yqrvotes pic.twitter.com/0cCNU3SmIs

There are bound to be interesting Council meetings coming up, too bad they’re on Wednesday afternoon when people are working. Good luck having the public engaged.

There is so much to do, but first I think overpriced bus fares need to be addressed.

Here's a municipal problem to fix that won't cost too much, and helps lower car-dependency. Post-secondary student bus passes are too expensive. They should eventually be free, but lowering the fares is something Council could do right away.https://t.co/2o55BhX7w7#YQRcc

#EatThinkVote Event A Success

The tables were full of people, and full of delicious free organic food too, at the Eat Think Vote forum for candidates this evening at the Core Ritchie hall. (The event had to wrap up at 8:30 for floor hockey at 9pm.)

After, I got to speak briefly with Della Anaquod of the Liberals, Ralph Goodale (Lib), Tamela Friesen (Green), and Erin Weir (NDP). There was a Libertarian candidate there, and others of each party except the Conservatives. It’s so disrespectful of the Conservative candidates to shun non-partisan campaign events such as this one, which help raise the level of discourse and idea-debate during an election campaign.

Libertarian candidate up first. Interested in a sort of #GLI to eliminate hunger and homeless problems #EatThinkVote pic.twitter.com/edngBzExnf

#EatThinkVote Food security policy of each party tonight. Cons don't have such a policy presumably so are conspicuously absent.

Now @RalphGoodale at #EatThinkVote #yqr pic.twitter.com/NbngNfPtT3

I asked Della why she didn’t speak with Ralph, and she said that in 8 minutes it was thought Ralph would be able to get across the Liberal’s points the best. The NDP used this strategy too. The three Greens all spoke well though in their allotted time.

#Greens had good speeches. NDP candidate took a little snipe at Goodale for not making a food strategy while Ag Min. pic.twitter.com/4G4adtk1EQ
