ReplyDeleteEarth to Bob: You have been on council for the last two terms and have been one of the biggest contributors to the dysfunction there.
You have hated the entire city except for the 2 block radius surrounding Gore Park and now you're sucking up to ancaster and flamborough.
You are embarassing.
re Professionalism at Council meetings.
ReplyDeleteThe concept is more than welcome but unfortunately the candidate putting it forward has a very public record of not conducting himself in manner that would bring respect to the proceedings of City Council.
Wait a second here. Doesn't professionalism include respectfulness, and maturity?
ReplyDeleteBob, you are the root cause of lack of professionalism at the Council Chambers.
ReplyDeleteNot only does Mr Bratina show disrespect during council meetings he is disrespectful toward his constituents. I have reams of horrid e mails from this man { In reply to queries I have had over the Past years } In speaking with others in this ward they too have experienced nasty communications from him. I believe that he is not at all suitable to lead this city.
ReplyDeleteHigh Five again, Kathy!
ReplyDeleteThis man is a blight on the landscape of the City of Hamilton.
His arrogance is well-documented and he continues to ignore the requests of constituents. As I've said before, if he won't listen / work with those of us currently in Ward 2, what can the City expect, Ward-wide, with him in a position of leadership.
He HAS no policy /platform - hence his grasping at things like de-amalgamation to garner voters.
Thank goodness we will not have to put up with his attitude and arrogance after Oct. 25th.
We need new councillors (and a new Mayor) who are forward thinking and pro-business. Unfortunately for Bob he is not the answer either.
ReplyDeleteWe need to clean-up house and get rid of some of these councillors who have been there too long and over-stayed their welcome.
I tip my hat to him for his years of service but his time is up...Time for he and the others to hop off the Hamilton gravy train.
