Interesting that an issue of Hume News from Councillor Peter Hume inviting residents of Ward 18 to his annual Riverview corn Roast should arrive in the mail, right in the middle of the 2010 municipal election campain.
I sincerely hope that this will not be used as an opportunity to promote his platform for office, at taxpayers' and the community's expense.

I don't dispute that a councillor has a responsibility to remain in contact with his constituents; but in reading "Hume News" I have never felt that the councillor has regarded this responsibility as anything more than an opportunity for self-promotion. Reading the 'newsletter,' I start to wonder how my experience in the community is enhanced by pictures of the councillor eating cake. It is cynical and uninteresting, the qualities that least describe our community.
