Author: Everett Baker STOP PLAYING SAME SONG Editor, The Gazette: Mayors and councils rise and fall on their record. This council's record seems to be in repeat mode on the same song "Ode to Joy." Your Worship I ask you to give leadership to this council and put this record to rest once and for all. Medical marijuana is not a debate that should over run all other city business. I would suggest that, if Coun. (Joy) Davies feels that strongly about legalizing marijuana, she run for a federal party where she can make changes to our laws. I would be more than happy to vote to send Joy Davies to Ottawa. Your Worship where is the economic development? I share past mayor (Neil) Krog's concerns regarding personal agendas. It's time for this council to get off the present path and on to one of moving Grand Forks forward. Or the next song they may hear is, "So long, it's been good to know you."
