It was a fact. How could they dispute it?

Actually I’m no longer on Council. I ran for Public School Board Trustee & was elected. 🥳

Yes, sadly it’s lower School Board voter participation .
@JimNeill3 Is municiplal voting higher than school district participation? Sorry if it seemed I was telling you what to do. My blurt of a prescription to get attention was generalized. Getting the suggestion about municipal voting into the news would be great. And congrats. 👍

Kevin, school boards under Education Act no longer have taxation power, it’s controlled by Queen’s Park. City Council has Municipal Taxation powers. I’m now a Public School Trustee, no longer a Councillor.
@JimNeill3 Put a referendum together to vote on lowering voters taxes, only voters, removing city fees.

Sadly so! 🥵
Kingston is shaping up to be the city with one of the lowest voter turnouts in Eastern Ontario. City of Kingston officials are reporting an official voter turnout of 30.5%, a 10.8% decrease from the 2018 municipal election.

Who else went to elementary school in Ontario and knows every single word to “Farewell to Nova Scotia” from singing it so often in music class?
