Well I don't agree that she should be voted out for not agreeing with our views. We disagree amoungst each other all the time - if we could've voted each other out; I'm sure I would've voted fenwick off this forum, as he would with me (for the stadium discussions - sorry; just thought it would be funny! ).

It is unfortunately that she's voted against these projects - but if her constituents agree with her approach and keep voting her in - there isn't really much that we can do about it.

I look at it this way: She's one vote on council that you will likely not be able to sway. If so; focus your efforts on those who you can sway. The fact that HRM council must be the ones to vote on the core applications - at least it's not like trying to get votes on Peninsula council.

Besides if every councillor that put up road blocks to certain issues deserved to be voted out for that one thing - then we'd have a whole new council! Hmmm...wait a minute...?
