Economic investment in libraries has a 6:1 return - that’s right 600% return. Show me one other free space in Ptbo that has that ability to raise the economic base in our community and raise families out of poverty!
Come to the rally at Healthy Planet this Thursday June 19th at 6pm. The decision to cut librarians from the library has NOT been implemented. This is a 2026 budget issue. Libraries need librarians!

A person of good character can still make horrible mistakes - accepting responsibility for those mistakes and consequences of those mistakes shows integrity.

The gallery is INCENSED and yelling at Council about the recommended amendment for the lack of penalty for Mayor Leal going forward. Chair Beamer has lost control of the gallery.

Haacke's trying to make Mayor Leal into the victim by citing the public backlash to Bonnerworth. "He is ashamed."

Coun. Baldwin continues to defend Mayor Leal and is mostly cherrypicking the conclusions of the IC Report. There's laughing in the gallery.

Baldwin invokes former mayor Daryl Bennett who didn't take pay while mayor. It's unclear what this has to do with the IC's report, beyond the possible 90 day pay suspension for Leal...

The only context in which it's okay to say to someone you want to carve them up like a Thanksgiving turkey is when you say it to a Thanksgiving Turkey.

Shocking behaviour from a mayor who has shown an alarming lack of judgement in what comes from his mouth since being elected. #PTBO
I have been waiting to write this story for 14 months when I first broke the news that Leal had threatened Coun. Bierk during a public meeting. The IC's report goes further by investigating complaints about Leal's conduct behind closed doors, too.

Councillor Baldwin has simply revictimized others this evening.

Integrity is a requirement in leadership. That seems to be lost on some councillors this evening. #ptbo needs change #electionsRcoming

Okay #ptbo if this 10 minutes of city council meeting doesn’t tell you change is needed, I don’t know what will make you wake up.

Baldwin is way out of order this evening.

#ptbo bullying has no place in any workplace. And apologies are simply not enough
