“Port Coquitlam has voted in favour of giving themselves a hefty raise, with a 27 per cent increase for councillors and a 42 per cent boost for Mayor Greg Moore...Moore's salary would jump to $85,418 from $67,277, while the councillors' pay would increase to $31,654 from $22,257.” (Vancouver Sun: July 26, 2010 8:14 PM)
Mayor Moore admitted to reporters that this decision was a very difficult one for Council to make. We must applaud the courage and determination of PoCo Council for making this heroic decision. Let’s hope the rest of their decisions will be less arduous to make!
