BEFORE and AFTER
Things are really heating up as Sue Saltzer, has thrown her Yellow Shirt into the ring as a candidate for council in Ward 2.  Sue
served as a councillor in the 1980s when
"community input was respected and one could disagree without being
disagreeable."
 
Sue has been a champion for Douglas Memorial Hospital and is a frequent delegate and observer at council meetings.  Ward 2
may be the most interesting race in this year's election, which takes place on October 25 with advanced polling available in the
week before the election.  Incumbent Rick Schular already faces some stiff competition from former Ward 4 councillor Richard
Berry.  Now he will square off against the formidable Mrs. Saltzer who has a host of yellow-shirted advocates behind her.
