Political Debate Discourse in Quesnel

On the Rush/Wolf yesterday afternoon/evening - in a long-run of continuing attacks on Quesnel Mayor Mary Sjostrom from Quesnel Councillor Sushil Thapar - he suggested that she purposely withheld information relating to the hiring of John Stecyk - Quesnel's City Manager and then criticized the executive search firm for not doing a good job and called for a meeting of Quesnel Council, without Staff present to "clear the air"

The tone of the debate among two members of Quesnel Council, over the last little while, reminded me of a blog post I did in June of 2007 which involved former CRD Area 'I' Director Mary Glassford and the then Quesnel Council and you can read that post here

Hopefully - when this future meeting of Quesnel Council occurs to "clear the air", according to Quesnel Councillor Thapar - that Quesnel Council can return to most pertinent matters and refrain from debating pesky little details, in public, like the hiring of Quesnel's City Manager which was done earlier this year
