      The article lists those who spoke for/against, but I don’t think it has the full list.

      The minutes should be available online.

        “It failed by a vote of five yeas to seven nays, with Dudas and couns. Glen Gower, Rawlson King, Jeff Leiper, and Shawn Menard voting in favour. Mayor Mark Sutcliffe and couns. Matt Luloff, Cathy Curry, Tim Tierney, Riley Brockington, David Brown, and Catherine Kitts voted against the motion”

        I will be emailing my councillor, David Brown, and voicing my displeasure.

          @Lemmyoutofhere @sbv Brockington almost always disappoints. The odd time he manages to pick the right side and he missed once again.
