To tell a quick story -- as told by a Quebec MP at the opening of the current (44th) Parliament of Canada...

"There was an old Mayor who was always being confronted by his citizens. At every municipal council meeting, he was questioned, insulted and harassed, and then he would leave. One day, as he was leaving a meeting, a woman asked him if he was fed up and tired of being insulted, harassed and questioned. He replied, “My dear lady, a good politician is like a monument. Sometimes, a little dog passes by, pees on the monument and then continues on its way. It does not really hurt the monument, but it does the little dog a lot of good.”

Despite some challenging conversations on some days -- on balance, it has been an honour to serve you as your sole Area "D" representative on the Cariboo Regional District Board in 2023 and thank you for the continuing opportunity to do so and I wish you all the very best in 2024....
