It seems strange when Bronco is crying for money yet the province keeps announcing record surpluses.
I hate to keep spending when the construction industry is already overloaded, but it sure seems a shame when kids need to be bused miles away to the nearest school because there either isn't one nearby or the roof has been deemed unsafe because of lack of maintenance.
This city seems to remind me of the old Fram oil filter commercial. "You can pay me now (looking at a new filter) or you can pay me later (pointing at an engine being lifted out of a car)". We are now in the "Later" category with a huge influx of population at the same time. I don't think there is any mayor that could have handled the recent few years without problems.
