I'm glad someone else was paying attention to this unacceptable behaviour on Coun. Dylan Kruger's part. I was watching the meeting on Eastlink, and I almost couldn't believe what I heard.

Except I could. Kruger has made it clear ever since he got elected that his nice-guy act during the campaign was just a mask for the kind of tin-pot despotism that unfortunately often goes unchecked in municipal politics. He clearly is angered by Coun. Lois Jackson's resistance to his and Mayor George Harvie's mission to see every mature tree in Delta cut down and every square inch paved over.

I propose an anyone-but-Kruger campaign, starting sooner than later. Anybody with me?
