Our communities, and our province, are a better place because of your commitment

On Saturday night, across the province, there were the cheers and sounds of victory … and the quiet sounds acknowledging defeat (at least at the polls) ... as hundreds of thousands of ballots were counted.

Many great people were elected to office --- and many great people gave it their best but didn't see their hopes achieved.  I’d like to say to those who gave of their time and energy --- your commitment to serve is definitely appreciated! 

To the husbands, wives, and children of those who stood for election – thank you for sharing your spouse / father / mother with us.  For those who won, be sure to acknowledge at all times the sacrifice your family will be making while you work for the betterment of our communities.
