So far I have received only 3 responses to my message, one counselor was on vacation, 2 weeks before the first tax payment is due, that my message has be forwarded to the appropriate people at the municipal and provincial levels, and a response from the Ombudsman stating that she only steps in as a last recourse and that I am currently in contact with the city officials regarding the problem. I have a feeling that this is politicians protecting politicians. I thought that I stated that the problem has been going on for FIVE YEARS, how long would it have to take for some public official to act appropriately.

They claim to be doing something which will be ready in September 2006. OH JOY, we can look forward to another summer of stink in Pierrefonds. No walks, no meals on our deck, nice aromas while cycling in our area...
