A busy day in the local media ... Scott Reid (MP, LLFA) was on CFRA's lunch bunch talking about Steffi's new un-justice plan, and the environmental front.
The afternoon show featured Mayor Dennis Staples talking about, well, you know. Not too much we haven't heard before ... one highlight of the chat ..
Harris: Can you tell me why Town councillor Dawn Quinn has basically said in a quote " It's a done deal, it really hits hard but we have to be positive". Is that just a difference of opinion in how final this is ?
Staples skirted the question like a pro, and Harris let him away with it.
Staples had mild criticism for McGuinty and crew. He started trying in 2004, it took 16 months to get a meeting with cabinet over the RRC... but with the Hershey announcement we have
" ... some serious attention from the Premier and cabinet"
Michael Harris seems to have taken a keen interest in Smiths Falls' cause.... while I'm not a huge fan of his show, this is really good news. He has a fair following in the afternoon and a lot of ink in the Ottawa Sun. This story doesn't seem to be falling victim to the "drive-by" media and that's a very good thing.
You can listen to both peices here ...
In a story in the Citizen the signatures keep coming in for the petition started.... tonight the count is 10483.
"Kirk Saville, the media relations spokesman for the company, said he was not aware of the petition"
Complete BS .... Corporations are well aware of what is being said about them everywhere . In fact, I have reason to believe they have been lurking around these parts ... I keep getting an unknown ISP from somewhere in middle America, with no referring URL ... hmmm
Wonder who that could be ??
