Moose Jaw Forum

Just watched the re-run of last week's Forum. Fraser, you need to work on your poker face ... I couldn't help but watch your facial expressions as you were seen in the background most of the time the other candidates were talking and answering questions, and I didn't like what I saw. Sorry but you won't be getting my vote. I've seen enough rolling of the eyes and shaking of the heads the past 3 years at Council meetings; don't need a repeat performance.

I'll never forget Mrs. Sagal-Hendry's expressions when Brian was speaking. She would shake her head, you could see her getting visibly upset, then finally the threshold was breached and she jumped up and called point of order. I don't want to see that kind of behaviour again! I would have much rather watched someone contradict the argument and refute the facts, but it never happened. Just emotional reactions and personal attacks.

I watched the repeat and was there at the forum. Not sure what Fraser was shaking his head at but I saw what you saw. Only one point made me wonder and that was when a girl asked Brian about the multiplex, she started yelling back at Brian will he was responding and her mic was off, and I'm pretty sure Fraser was shaking his head at her. But I don't know about the other points that's for sure. But I can tell you it concerned me as well.

I have to tell you one thing about Fraser caught me off guard and that's when he pointed out one of the other candidates blogs where they wrote about how they weren't ready or something. I've read that blog. I was impressed others came to the same conclusion. We don't want someone who isn't ready, who isn't prepared, we want someone who is qualified. It isn't enough to want to make a difference, you have to know how to make a difference.
