Wil's Rant

25%, that's what Ottawa City Council has given themselves as this years pay raise.....SWEET. I find this particularly offensive in the light of the massive tax hikes homeowners in Ottawa have faced in the last couple of years. The time has come for a new system for allotting pay increases for politicos. The concept that they should decide their own pay increases is immoral. We might have been able to accept the system so long as they showed some restraint and ethics in their decisions, but this is clearly not the case here. These people should hold their heads in shame for this self-allotted winfall while cutting social services at a never before seen pace. The time has come for change. It can't happen fast enough for my liking.
