I've never understood why I elect trustees, but I just refused to vote, since I didn't' have children. Now that I have a child, I vote, and I'm even more perplexed, finding out information on the candidates is near impossible, so I end up voting based on the name of the person?
Seriously, we should stop electing trustees, or any other public service job in the bureaucracy. That is why I elect an MLA, MP, or Council Member to represent my interests and properly gather information on the people that are running these boards. Ya, there is issues with that, but it's better than electing random people...
