  • Jeffrey Waye - Green Vote - Ward 7
    My name is Jeffrey Waye and I am running for election for Ward 7.

    The singular, most troubling issue that I have is our government’s lack of commitment to the environment. I find it unacceptable that we mismanage our green spaces. Arguably, our city planning department follows a policy of “obedience” to industry. For too long there has been a generalized disregard! Just look at our language: we talk about “empty land” – which we know is far from empty and in fact teem with non-human life.

    I have great concern for the future of our fields, forests, marshes and farmlands. All of these are threatened in Barrie’s plan for growth. But, we don’t have to continue down this road. We need larger vision and we need leaders with enough backbone to say “NO” to developers and to the short-term interests that threaten the balance of nature. It is a cost that we do not have the right to impose upon our children!

    As Abraham Lincoln said, “You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today.” What will the future of Barrie be like 20 years from now if we do not act? As counsellor I will be a voice for long-term sustainability. I will resist destructive developments.

    If you are concerned for our fragile environment, I urge you to vote for Jeffrey Waye, Ward 7.

    Vote Dave Hardwick for Barrie City Council 2010
  • Paolo Fabrizio for Barrie City Council Ward 9, 2010
    I believe that your taxes should be spent on needed repairs that you and your neighbours need, first, and theatres, second. I want to do what you say, for what you need, and not some well-organized, special interest group wants. Do you agree with me? Then be sure to give me your support on October 25. You may as well participate, as you already paid for this election!

    Barrie is a vibrant, dynamic and energetic city with remarkable potential.

    I’ve been proud to call Barrie my home since moving here more than thirty six years ago and have worked to make it an even better place to live, work and raise a family.

    I love Barrie and it’s why I want to be your mayor.

    Being mayor requires a number of different skills‚ but the most important is remembering who you work for – you and the citizens of Barrie.

    It’s about listening‚ being involved in the community and working together to make this city a better place.
