Dear Editor,

Mr. Campbell, who are you to give advice and complain about our hard-working mayor Joanne Labadie?

First of all, Mr. Campbell, for someone who had to be put under tutorship during your term as mayor because of a lack of ability to work with council members, to enable you to have budgets accepted, bills paid, etc., your advice is worthless.

You say that as a previous mayor you are aware of proper procedures for council meetings and these are not adhered to. Did this knowledge come to you before, during or after your ‘tutorship’?

The 2018 budget was voted on by all councilors and it was their decision, not the mayor’s, to accept these motions.

Mrs. Labadie is doing her best and we wish her a second term to finish the cleanup job she has started.

Kathie Côté,

Quyon, Que.
