...and thank you Marvin Caplan!

'The Hamiltonian' deserves additional pats on the back for having Ward 2 Councillor candidate Marvin Caplan respond to the following:

Some may think that you've had your day in local politics and that you should allow for some "new blood" to prevail. How do you respond to people who may espouse that idea?

This 'out with the old, in with the new' refrain is a constant one for some. Not only is it alarmingly dismissive, but it's also often ageist...to me the greater of the two misjudgements. (People with more access to information than ever before should know better.)

For me, it additionally ties into the issue of 'term limits'. And we all know where I stand on those.

Take a look at Mr. Caplan's response.

I'm always interested in feedback, differing opinions, even contrarian blasts...as long as they're delivered with decorum...with panache and flair always helping.
