To recap…
Demetrios incorrectly told people he would be authenticating signatures & can’t sign book bans properly…
Tanya Fir couldn’t hang up a phone WITH HELP & called a constituent a “motherfucker”

One way to apply for the job
When a man hijacked a bus in Hamilton, Ontario, on Tuesday, the potentially catastrophic scenario ended happily. It turns out he was a pretty decent bus driver. He made regular stops to pick up passengers, the police reported. At one point someone tried to board with an expired bus pass. No dice.
