Wonderful news. Cobb has embarrassed the residents of Williams Lake long enough! It's time for real change. His tired old tough on crime agenda is nothing but a thinly veiled attack on non-whites, not a way to move this community forward. Bullying only builds resentment. Let's hope Surinder's tenacity pays off this time and citizens realize that what we truly need is someone who is willing to work with and recognize and cooperate with all levels of government and First Nations. It is way past time.
