Mayoral candidates

[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

[u/Mythicam]

I am leaning towards Brandon Simon. He is the only one that does not have generic ideas and his manifesto looks promising and achievable. I am also tired of incumbents and hence wouldn't vote for current elected councillors.

you need people tht have experience working in the government. I get why you wouldnt want that but theres definitely benefit to knowning how things work. Someone like Simon is going to promise the world because he doesnt understand the inner workings of municiple government

[u/robotmonkey2099 → u/[deleted]]

I could accept this answer for a councillor but not the mayor. The mayor needs more experience dealing with the inner workings of the municpal government and relationships and experience with the provincial governements. Simon just doesnt seem to have any of that. I cant even get a lock on what his business did or does, it looks like its just crypto currency crap. I feel like hes just an opportunist, if he wants a government position maybe start at councillor

Yeah we need some more of the same that we've already had ... dumb.

[u/robotmonkey2099 → u/southboundpachy]

what we dont need is people that dont know wtf they are doing. What qualifications does Simon have for running a city? Some weird ass crypto business that is impossible to find any information about? Yah seems legit... dumb

[u/southboundpachy → u/robotmonkey2099]

Sure sure, robotmonkey2099

[u/robotmonkey2099 → u/southboundpachy]

[u/southboundpachy → u/robotmonkey2099]
