Oh for crying out loud.

The number one reason for this blog is to get a replacement for this goofball.
Katz's strategy the last two times around was to motivate local business interests to help get some sweet deals. Winnipeg is so badly divided between Conservative and NDP interests that it's proved next to impossible to find a decent candidate to represent all Winnipeg, so we get Katz, the worst of all possible worlds.
Katz and his right-wing thugs are, so far, steamrolling over the competition, but it's an eternity between now and election day,
The game plan is simple. Discussions amongst the rest of Winnipeg to figure out where we want to take this city. There are problems with the Premier provincially, and the Conservatives federally that will ensure turmoil municipally, but the simple truth is that I believe in Winnipeggers, and their ability to move forward. I believe this city can do much better than it has shown.
It's time for this city to get its act together and move beyond the yahoo politics of today.
With the new year, it will happen.

Admittedly, I'm probably a little too hot on this post. I certainly don't think of Mr. Katz as a goofball. I'm also talking out of my ear to a degree.
