would jim jones get off the pot arid stop waffling first hes seen at a tom long alliance lead- ership event then he dashes out in the hopes nobody will see him he gets kicked outof the tory caucus for not showing enough loyalty to the pc party now he has to decide which party hell represent its not fair to his constituents we are voting for a yoice to speak onour behalf not for a politician whose only concern is the better ment of his career- corhe to think of it what work has he done seems pretty useless tome bottom line jones is acting in the most self- serving and selfish way itis time for markham to elect a fresh new face arid put the old incon sistent politicians to rest r vbishara markham mikes not to blame for mould poor mike harris gets blamed for every thing i am sure if there was a spelling mistake in the magna carta he would get the blame tony gencos letter to the editor july 29 2000 puts the blame for the mould irijhe newmarket courthouse and our school porta bles on mikey when all he did was find it did it ever occur to genco there is a possibility the mould could have been caused by a design or construction defect and furthermore that construction could have been tendered by a liberal or ndp government genco i suggest you check the sell before date before you step to your soapbox richard compton unionville drivers a miserable coward to the person who
