A Letter to the Editor

This letter is in response to an article about Simcoe North MPP Jill Dunlop’s re-election, published June 2.

Imagine walking into a room of 40 people and finding out 20 of them thought you were unfit for your job. Or imagine that 50 per cent of the clients you currently serve do not want to do business with you again in the future.

The bar is so low for our elected officials that this exact situation is cause for celebration and called a “landslide victory.” Is someone really a “rock star” if they can only fill half a stadium?

A message to Jill Dunlop: Although we differed in our preferred candidates, the majority of Simcoe North residents are united in their belief that you are not it. I would remember that.
