This morning I finally got around to reading the campaign postcard that Peter Tabuns had slipped through my mailslot last week. Peter had even taken the trouble to personalise the card by writing "Sorry I missed you - Peter" on the front.

Too bad he had not taken the trouble to clearly state what he what running for.

Worse, when I went to his website to vertify that he was, in fact, running in the by-election for the position of M.P.P. (as Marilyn Churley had stepped down to run in the federal election) I discovered that the website wasn't even ready yet.

As much as I am an NDP supporter in principle I really wish that they were more organized.

Oh, and Peter, as much as I believe in more community policing and funding for our classrooms, it would really help if you spelled out where the money to pay for this is going to come from. Having already gone through the Harris years, as well as the employment hell that was 2004, my contemporaries and I are of the opinion that with Harper in power there is no point in relying on the feds.
