I heard a rumour there is a divorce in the works - but that's just a rumour, I have no substantial proof to offer.

I listened to an RCMP officer talk about how Basran had no respect for the force. I imagine that person is pretty pleased with the results of the mayoral election - I know I am! :biggrin:

You guys need to be careful with these comments about cheating and having an alcohol problem, etc, as, if they're incorrect, their libellous. Not saying they're right or wrong, but wow, some of these allegations could be pretty damaging to someone. Remember, he also has kids and they and their friends read stuff as well. Just saying.

I have seen enough trashing around here to see that this is the norm.

Same in Vancouver with soon-to-be ex Mayor Kennedy Stewart trashing the VPD.
During the defund-the-police idiocy he cut a few million from their budget.
Due to poor moral the VPD is now seriously short of officers and is struggling to recruit.
Fortunately the public saw the light.

To whoever manages the forum...can we delete my original post please? It was my opinions on why I wasn't voting for him. Now that the election is over, not any reason for this to go on. Especially with the way the conversation (anonymous posters) talking his family etc.

The election is over. Time to move on

It wouldn't matter if the forum manager deleted the original post. It can still be read because a) it was saved on the Wayback Machine, and b) it can still be read on a local news site.

If, and this is a BIG if............if he decides to try a run at ANY higher level of politics the question that WILL be posed to him at any question and answer session will be.........."has cocaine ever been a part of your daily life".

You can do that yourself. Just go and edit and remove the text or hit the "x" to delete.

My point being … for someone who liked to look down on the unfortunate dealing with multiple issues and dismiss them, he forgot to look in the mirror. That’s what angers me.
