"Cowardice asks the question...is it safe? Expediency asks the question...is it politic? Vanity asks the question...is it popular? But conscience asks the question...is it right? And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but one must take it because it is right." ~Dr. Martin Luther King

Church Bulletin

The fire was  out on Saturday. Water has to continue to be poured on to make sure it doesn't start up again.

One lane of traffic  and sidewalk in front of the Church is closed  during demolition.

The intersection with Mosley will not  be in service while demolition  of unsafe structure
happens.

Bathurst Street is recommended.

The Mayor has made the commitment on behalf of the town to provide whatever help we can at this tragic time.

A careful assessment of what might be saved  is to be made;

Offers of help are flooding in.

Thank you for that. I gave up checking on the town's site.

Question. And I know this may sound like I don't care about the loss, but....

How much of my municipal tax dollars are being promised to the church? Clr Able has already stated the Town must lead.

I do not believe that would be possible unless it falls under the blasted " preservation of heritage " label the Mayor is so fond of reciting.

Let's give this some time & wait until things settle down. We have no idea at this stage what insurance is involved & what the Church will decide to do with the property. I recall a well-to-do businessman offering a church property & money with which to build something he wished to see. As far as I know, he was turned down.

Councillor Abel has already over-spent his allowance. He is more than welcome to reach into his own pockets and set a personal example.
