They have not been there for the people just a puppet for the Mayor and the Irving support. The same goes for McGuire, Chase, Hooton, Tait and our city manager and frankly our city solicitor has done nothing to stand for the people of Saint John either. For small issues they will appear to care but honestly they are now concerned to get a revote in next election. They will not have my support and now I begin to wonder what the next group will be up to and Irving has the power to back several other councillors. Democratic system we don't have; just a mayor who cries until they revote and do as he wants. The have never been open and inclusive just bullies and they turn and run when people want answers. This NEB process may of had credibility but with the Mayor and councillors actions over the last two years and the acticles in the newspaper we all know that this has been a tainted system from the time the Mayor looked in Irving eyes and the Mayor had his hand in someones pocket. Sucker comes to mind but don't think he was taken for a ride because it was the people of Saint John that have been fleeced. Disgusting and criminial our municipal government at it's best. People can't stomach anymore and just walk away.

Thank you Councillor Court who just wanted all to be brought out in the open and get answers but from the start he was stopped and the paper tried to bring his character down. Takes more then the Mayor and Irving to destroy a good man. The people Saint John know he stood for all people and that can't be taken away. Read all the trash printed and frankly the Telegraph lost alot of credibility. We know that you try to spin how great our Mayor is and to think he believes all his closest friend bull that is sad.

No matter what happens this pipeline doesnot need to go throughout our city; go out to the Bay. The big picture has been forgotten ; the people who have to live with Irving branching off this line. Worse thing to happen in my memory to Saint John.

If someone was just concerned with being reelected they could take a page from Court's playbook. All he does is pander.

Councillor Court cares about one thing only, his image. He will do anything to get attention and make himself look good. He tends to forget that he represents the people and that it is not just him as he tends to think sometimes. Only one councillor really cares about the people of Saint John and that is John Ferguson. Just a question has anyone ever heard Councillor Jay Chang say anything at all?? Is he a mute or does he know how to talk...........LOL

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.

The council happens to believe in trickle down economics - waht's good for business will be good for the economy and good for the people.

As for Court being open and honest -I bet if one of his wack job theories or even one of his legitimate causes (St. joe's) was going to get a big amount of money from a closed door meeting, he'd day "screw openness lets go behind that door and make me look like a hero."
