Lots of us wondered for years what keeps Barbucsi's nose in our business or should I say non business like the Container Port and Windmills.Well........ just take a look at Eldon's donations to find part of the answer.Add this to the $440,000 plus benefits package approved 12 to 1 by the mayor and council on Nov.12/24 to departing CAO/Accountant Marie Walsh,you know, the one who let the credit card scam take place under her nose.Kinda think folks are catching on to this motely crue.

Always suspicious when I hear Clarke is working on a “deal” with Barbusci…wondering if he is going to sell us down the tubes again. Let’s recall Glynn Williams’ (Fortress Rum) larger bid on Archibald’s Wharf which would have left the green space for the community…. That bid was not entertained because Clarke had already made a deal before council had the chance to even evaluate….even though the community would have supported that deal. Clarke has been paying for that one ever since. Someone has to be the watch dog on this new deal before he does something similar behind the scenes…..nothing really changes does it? This community will not move forward until we have transparency.

As the smoke clears its becoming obvious to the people of CBRM that the Premier and The Minister of Municipal Affairs must have known about the controversial golden handshake of $440,000 plus benefits paid to our CAO/ACCOUNTANT who failed us miserably.No sensible government,busines,organization or private enterprise would issue a payment like that.We deserve an explanation and unless its something we can swallow the 12 reps who approved it should do the honourable and resign.
