Walking in Waterloo Region

[MidTowner]

Of course that's a ridiculous expectation. The city doesn't meet it for clearing roads either. But it's also a ridiculous argument to use for closing down the discussion. 
We need less politicking and more genuine desire to move the city and the region forward.

He might think that it's something other than a transparent straw man argument. I wonder how he could, but maybe BuildingScout is right in his assessment of him.

It's a no-brainer, but I suppose even something this simple requires the right framing by someone with a modicum of leadership. No, we're not going to get the snow cleared by 6:30, but we'll do a lot better than is done now (which is in some cases never). And homeowners won't have to do it. What could be simpler?

Edit: I also laughed out loud when he was quoted referencing the "global economy being soft."
