After the complaints yesterday about Ottawa's panhandlers I wonder how the city will now cope with this problem after issuing notice this morning the city management will be cutting back 300 - 500 jobs among lower ranking workers. What the heck does that mean? Our happy-go-lucky mayor thinks tough times are just around the corner and service levels to us hapless citizens will just have to take a dive. Earlier this week it was disclosed the city has turned away thousands of women from shelters this year. Are we to turn into another look-alike third-world capital? Don't be surprised... Marie and I are off to our property tomorrow morning so our best wishes to all for a safe and happy Thanksgiving! gws
