6 Py al e s ; AQ Browsing through Erik Neil- son’s book, The House is Not a Home, a wonderful quote caught my cyc: by Cy Relph Former town alderman “Tt is amazing how an clection can make politicians polite,” thought how wonderful it would be to have an election, and polite politicians, here in Sidney. Ald. Ron Kubek, who doesn’t live or work in Sidney, is resigning some time in the future, and a byelection will be held that will cost the Town of Sidney X dollars. It struck me that it would not cost very much more to elect a whole council at the same time, ~~ After all, there will be staff wages, hall rental, and newspaper notices for the byelection, and it would be almost the same cost for the seven. The complete council! ~The Municipal Act has denied us the election this year, and the opportunity to send council a mes- sage, but if Sidney council has the ® courage of its convictions, and believes the town is. behind them in the mess of the Port of Sidney, ~ the. huge five-acre Berlin Wall of an overpass to be built in the middle of Sidney, and more devel- ‘opment and. highrise buildings on our waterfront, let them all resign sand run again by byelection. -It will cost the Town of Sidney excry little, but give the citizens. of “-.
