But, a lot of good things have been done in the past 2 weeks regarding the rat situation. It sure makes you wonder whether the City would have stepped up and done these things if they hadn't been called out in the media. It's too bad it came to this but I think our City definitely misjudged the situation and got burnt for it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37271484.post-11023573209451943062009-09-04T11:21:08.730-06:002009-09-04T11:21:08.730-06:00I agree on both points but more with what Jon says...I agree on both points but more with what Jon says. The City should have done more at the start but as a business owner taking it to the National Media was just plain dumb. When I have friends from BC, Ont and places in between asking me about it something is wrong. This has totally impacted our tourism industry. When people from Shaunavon and even Maple Creek going to Medicins Hat instead to do their shopping it hurts all of us, and that is what I have a huge problem with. They should have Known better.<br /><br />Enough now with Rats. It time for Hockey Season. How sweet it is.

I agree with you that bringing this kind of ...Jon,<br /><br />I agree with you that bringing this kind of attention to the city on the rats is not what we want. However if the city would have done their job in the first place and admited there was a problem and started to do something right away to address it we would not be talking about it right now. Those concerned citizen that you mention that crave media attention tried to get council's attention on numourous occation and nothing was done. They had little choice but to go public with this to get some action from the city. If it wasn't for them the city more than likley still would not have done anything to address the problem. I am very proud of the people that stood up and did something to address this issue they should be commended not ridiculed by people like yourself. If you knew the whole story you would be totally embarrassed by they way the city handled this situation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
