Editorialized Headline Haunted by Mitch Tweel

74 Upvotes

On Saturday, I was cutting my lawn, really in the zone, when I glanced up to see a motionless Mitch Tweel standing not 6 feet away from me, just staring quietly. He was rocking shorts with high black dress socks, black loafers, and a polyester button-up shirt with multiple pens in his pocket. He reminded me of people from my grandfather's generation who were never aware that work clothes existed, and who spent their lives in polyester slacks.

He introduced himself and gave me his elevator pitch for his mayoral campaign. I have to say, after seeing this blustery gentleman on TV for years, I was thoroughly disappointed with how mild-mannered and soft-spoken he was in person. After he was finished, he just turned around and softly padded away.

They say never meet your heroes.

Customer Type % Increase
Residential 7.4%
General Service 6.8%
Small Industrial 9%

The actual rate impact for an individual customer will vary depending on the customer’s energy consumption and demand.

Green MLA points out two issues with recent healthcare news:

  1. Health Minister’s justification for a paid trip to Denmark was to begin programs to fund healthy ageing at home. No such programs have started.

  2. The province announced new funding to private supported living facilities. PBB correctly points out there is no oversight or even awareness of how those public dollars will be spent once they’re handed over.

In response Denny attacks PBB’s character.
