The role of a City Councillor—and that of their dedicated support staff—can be demanding. With back-to-back meetings, countless emails and phone calls, and interview requests from media outlets like The Hamiltonian, the pace can be relentless. That’s why, every now and then, a little light-hearted silliness is not only welcome—it’s important!
Councillor Esther Pauls, ever the good sport, recently received a custom badge sent to every Councillor who participated in our Hamiltonian interview series and earned a spot in our Star Wards list. The badge, which reads “I am not on The Hamiltonian’s Most Wanted List,” is a tongue-in-cheek badge of honour celebrating those Councillors who made time to engage with the public through The Hamiltonian.
Enjoy this delightful photo of Councillor Pauls proudly wearing her badge—proof that civic duty and a sense of humour go hand in hand.
Now, the real questions:
Will those on The Most Wanted List turn themselves in by accepting our interview invitation?
Will Mayor Horwath wear her badge of honour and share a photo—injured wrist or not?
And will more Councillors rise to the occasion and send in a proud badge-wearing pic?
Only time will tell… as The Hamiltonian continues to patrol the Hall. 😉
