The following message was sent to Fred Tilley by Charles Sampson. Fred is openly endorsing Cecil Clarke for mayor.
We have been saying along that the party system is corrupted and there is no meaningful opposition. Our only possible solution is to elect all new representatives who will run as independents to better represent us in the legislature.
Here is Charles message to Fred Tilley:
Fred, doesn’t your endorsement of Cecil Clarke for mayor, given his lengthy record of not being an advocate for this community regarding the federal Equalization transfers, also convey that you too agree with Cecil on this issue?
The political manipulation of these federal Equalization transfers are more understood today. How are you going to seek the accountability and full transparency to where these funds are being spent in this province without the support of Cecil should he win the mayoral race?
This transparency is particularly relevant, as you are aware, with the formula’s category dealing with the municipal deficiency in the tax capacity related to property taxes and miscellaneous revenues. This category has generated over $650 million of this year’s transfer of $3.284 billion.
Why is the government’s provincial (equalization) grant to struggling municipalities just $30 million for decades?
Or is your endorsement of Cecil and what he represents on the federal Equalization transfers also your position too?
