Allowing posts from this mayor who block residents as does this FB group.
These same people bullied residents who question the lack of leadership in Protecting PM. Orders given.
I will put his entire Facebook post under the Blog section.
No problems taking an expense paid trip to Victoria looking for millions of dollars to put more trains through the middle of Pitt Meadows!!
I attended the meeting and watched the video and my perception is much different.
It was clear to me that the majority of people who spoke had concerns about the proposal and there were very few who were in favour.
Perhaps council was not open to hearing the concerns raised but others seemed to hear the concerns based on comments such as “I’ve heard a lot of people talking against this separate detachment.”
One person even stated: “listen to people when we say no, we don’t want that. It’s not necessary.”
During the meeting the mayor defended the report’s findings and told a concerned resident that “our council does not agree with your conclusions.”
Rather than listening to the concerns raised by residents, the mayor appeared to defend the report’s findings. The mayor also stated “we’re unanimous that we think that this is a really good idea.”
There is evidence that council made up it’s mind about the direction they planned to go long before the consultants report was submitted.
These are the people who regularly attend and dominate the council meetings. They are also the ones online dominating and controlling the local Facebook groups. Left to right - Gordon (Dingwalls Manager), Meachen, Simpson, Hayes, Salonga, McKay, Siemens, Loyer and of course the woman that lives on Facebook - Zutz. Siemans runs Pitt Meadows Community Facebook page.
Guest list.....same as speakers at council and known supporters.
Diane Siemens is the Admin of the Facebook Group - Pitt Meadows Community. Third at the table on the right.
Conveniently done "In Camera". No chance to comment by anyone, and he will not allow comments online.
