The CEO'S argument against the 'West Nipissing Voice' is that the editor has displayed some doubt regarding the convoluted story behind the deployment of a drone.. Since when is it unwise to be skeptical of politicians? If Canadians had been a lot more cynical, and a lot less trusting, maybe our country would not be in the state it is right now with record high homelessness, hunger and despair. To accept what the CEO has to say at face value is definitely not a virtue! It is public money that keeps these people in their positions and they must answer to us. When questions are asked by the public it is outrageous for the CEO to respond by labelling such questions as 'cynical'. Given that a list of 'acceptable' and 'approved' news sources was already disseminated by the Municipality, and now the author of unapproved news source is labelled, 'cynical' this seems to be getting uncomfortably close to censorship and exclusion. If the Mayor and CEO want us to be less skeptical maybe they should try being a little more open and transparent.
