re taxpayer dollar
ReplyDeleteAs the old saying goes the squeeky wheel gets the grease.
#1 What really needs some bucks spent is the seedy, dirty, stuck in the 70's stretch of main street between BMO and the Old Eaton's. Don't see to many tourists wanting to take in the ambiance.
#2 last, but not least:
sadly, despite the fact that the Schubert centre is full of happy golden agers on a regular basis it finds itself in a funding shortfall. It fascilitates trips, companionship, hot meals etc on a daily basis. The comfort this service offers to family and friends of seniors should not be underestimated--its value is priceless.
Yet, Yet!! A facility that fills a true need is desparate for funding and empty galleries (some not accessible) get the bucks? Why is this so?
