On Saturday, February 25th, the town of Kearney celebrated Family Day and Heritage Day with a potluck dinner at the community centre. Councillors Ken Ball and Steve Sainsbury both rolled up their sleeves and helped out in the kitchen. Ken is well known for volunteering in the community, but we're being surprised more and more by Councillor Sainsbury who really seems to be making an effort to stand shoulder to shoulder with his neighbours. Not surprisingly, Councillor Barry Dingwall didn't show up now that he knows he can stay at home (in Barrie) and still get paid.
To avoid another "Where's Pauldo?", Mayor Paul Tomlinson did attend with his wife, but of course neither offered to help out and obviously couldn't wait to get out of there once they'd finished stuffing their faces with free food. In fact, Tomlinson and his wife barely seemed able to stand being in the same room as us icky Townies and huddled alone in a corner while they gobbled down their meals. Free meals finished, they couldn't get out of there fast enough. Tomlinson even snubbed his buddy Sainsbury who he now considers a turncoat for socializing below his station.
Are you surprised?
