Phil Shirks Responsibility… Again

Phil McColeman has insulted Brantford's hard-working city councillors by blaming them entirely for the cost overruns at the Gretzky Centre renovation.

As this blog has repeatedly stated, the cost overruns are almost entirely due to an unreasonably tight deadline on stimulus spending – a deadline implemented by the Conservative government. (For DumpPhil's past coverage of this issue, see "Phil's Pointless Promise",  "Gretzky Centre Over Cost Because of Phil!",  and "Conservative government costs Brantford millions in wastePHIL spending")

When will Phil man up and take responsibility??

Dump Phil Reaches 100!

This post marks the 100th entry since DumpPhil started reporting on the poor performance of Phil McColeman. It's quite an achievement. In a little over two years literally thousands of unique readers have visited the blog – on which we have spent $0. We are proud to have raised the level of political awareness and discourse in Brant.

Some of our greatest hits have included "Phil McColeman: Soft on Crime pt 1" and "pt 2", "Phil decorates the Canadian flag...", and "Phili Vanilli", each of which garnered hundreds or thousands of page loads.

During this final week before the election we'll have some really hard-hitting posts so check back often and keep leaving lots of comments. In the meantime, here's a rundown of our posts since we started:
