Okay - we all know that some councillors (mostly based in East York) spend our tax dollars in ridiculous ways - I've said enough about Paula Fletcher eating oysters & steak while yelling at us. There's a complete disrespect of us AND our tax dollars, and we all know it.
However, every once in a while, a councillor really takes it to the next level and crosses the line of simple human decency.
Councillor Sandra Bussin attended a constituent's funeral awhile back. Good for her, right? Well, she didn't pay for it. She billed both her gas mileage and the flowers to US - to the taxpayers. That was awfully generous of her, wasn't it? Apparently, Sandra Bussin doesn't have the smarts or decency to realize that she just made the family of the deceased pay for their own flowers.
Maybe I know why current councillors are billing every cent they can find; It's because they know they'll all be out on their arses come Oct. 26th - better grab every penny on your way out the door.
Nice job, Sandy. You, Fletcher and the rest of the "spend-at-will" NDPers forgot one thing that us regular folks know; Eventually, every bill comes due, and every cent's gotta be paid somehow.
We all know you're not going to give the money back. That's okay. We'll just take your job in return.
