Too late --

they are likely already leaking. The only questions are ... how much poop in the Rideau will be enough? And WHEN will Dolt ante up the cash ?

Engineering consultants have advised Merrickville-Wolford Township that recent inspections indicate that three sewage holding tanks serving the village “are most likely leaking due to corrosion.”

A statement issued by the township today said the engineers’ report confirms years of statements that failure of the sewage tanks was imminent. The testing confirms there is rapid deterioration of the tanks in the small township system “and indicates the contents are most likely leaking into the surrounding ground,” the report says.


Too bad the strip mall in Iroquois won the Liberal lottery --

$1.1 million nearby South Dundas Twp. was granted in provincial restructuring funds to spruce up a shopping plaza in Iroquois.

In order for the project to qualify for the public funds, South Dundas council is acquiring ownership of the pedestrian walkway and canopy outside the mall stores.


Of course, you have to elect a Liberal to get cash for the really important stuff.

That's where Merrickville went wrong. Partisan politics of the most disgusting kind.

So wait, the township in South Dundas is now responsible for the maintenance of the access to this shopping plaza that was just given 1.1 mil? Nice deal if you own a store there, you won't even have to shovel.

Bass: Of course not. Just elect a nice, warm, cuddly Liberal and they'll take care of you. Honestly. None of this working for yourself nonsense. But first you must free your mind of all those silly conservative ideas and vote Liberal.

I couldn't believe the Township was willing to accepting this liability ...

I dunno but much like the leaking sewage storage tanks in Canada's prettiest village -- somethin' is REALLY starting to STINK in Iroquois.
