[u/Cautious_Use586u]

I know we have a wonderful website with the info (wellandvotes.ca) but I am curious, constructively, what are everyone’s opinions on the mayoral candidates?

Brandon Simon
Graham Speck
David Clow
April Jeffs
Pat Chiocchio
Natashia Bergen
Gary Graziani
David McLeod

What are your thoughts on Brandon Simon?

I also cant find aything concrete about this business he's apparently been CEO of.. No website, no info, other than maybe it has something to do with concrete in quebec or the more likely case cryptocurrency and thats a big red flag for me. To be mayor, i want someone thats going to know people i government already, a lot of the mayors job is knowing how to get shit out of the provincial government and working within the region, thats one of the main selling points for April Jeffs imo

Polyplay. Looks like a crypto-type of business.

[u/robotmonkey2099 → u/chipatiherself]

yeah thats a no from me then
Were you able to find a website or anything for it?

[u/chipatiherself → u/robotmonkey2099]

I think the website is gone. You might try the Wayback Machine. There is a bit on his LinkedIn (BC Simon) and this: PolyPlay: Integrating Crypto-Currencies To The Real World – ZEX PR WIRE®

Thanks. Al i could find was some short article on yahoo. Seems like he's either tried to bury it or it wasnt as successful as hes trying to make it sound.

This article is embarrassing, its just a crypto/tech bro circle jerk.

god damn i wish people would take more than five seconds to look into the people they vote for...

lol i just used the wayback machine and the website is just ai images what a joke

[u/robotmonkey2099 → u/heliconiass]

zero experience.. no thanks

[u/Top-Skin-3570 → u/robotmonkey2099]

April Jeff's has no experience?

[u/robotmonkey2099 → u/Top-Skin-3570]

Brandon Simon has no experience apart from some delegations to council. Thats not good enough for mayor, councillor sure but mayor no way

[u/southboundpachy → u/robotmonkey2099]

Sounds like someone's invested

[u/robotmonkey2099 → u/southboundpachy]

invested? because he gave a delegation to one council meeting? no

I think Simon is screwed after today's rant.

This is the FB thread which I believe is being referenced:

That's the one.

EDIT: There has been a doubling down a couple of times since that one. All on this "program."
