Let& #39;s be real: $700k is peanuts. What& #39;s that, like a half-dozen cops? The real issue is priorities, and Council& #39;s track record of financial acumen is piss-poor. Why strategically invest money you could just throw away instead? https://twitter.com/TheSpec/status/1264201951362908160">https://twitter.com/TheSpec/s...

This town gives money away to hare-brained private sector Ponzi schemes like it& #39;s going out of style. We never met a dollar we couldn& #39;t waste. We are the KLM of municipalities, a black hole of fiscal incompetence & stupidity.

Remember the stadium? The LRT we refused to build? The downtown bus lane we shicanned after an astroturfing campaign? The Amazon HQ bid? The RHVP? Which was apparently built by mob shysters so it ended up costing even more? The commonwealth fucking games?

After a while #HamOnt makes you start feeling insane for daring to expect better, makes you start distrusting your own memories & direct knowledge that other places exist which aren& #39;t run so poorly, makes you start wondering if competence is even a real concept. Fuck that shit.
