Mayor's letter laughable

I read with amusement how quickly mayor Brian Jackson was to jump to both his and fellow elected officials' defence for comments made by a private citizen regarding attendance to growth meetings in a previous letter to the editor.

Barb Baguley made no reference to herself as a former elected official, but the bearing that this fact has on her comments are obviously something that Jackson takes very seriously, if he must so carefully point it out repeatedly.

In my opinion, some of his excuses were lackluster and perhaps should have resulted in the adjustment to his busy schedule. This is the future of Innisfil in the County of Simcoe, he, if admittedly not myself, should be as fully informed and up to date as is possible, as should all elected officials that I helped, or didn't help, into office with my votes. Thank you to Baguley for bringing to our attention the attendance record and habits of our elected officials at the growth meetings that she attended, and to Jackson for carefully pointing out who is the elected member and who is the former, perhaps that will be a consideration for public voting in the future.

Robert Tulli,
