Another mailing from MP Scott Reid reveals that he lives in passive abstraction. In September he wrote about electoral reform, a theme he has maintained since his university days. In October, he reports on his constituency referenda – base solely on who responds to him. Great at asking interesting questions, but what does Scott Reid actually do? The really big question of leadership in Lanark-Frontenac-Kingston should address our social and economic future. Many of our municipalities experience a loss of population. A few are wildly expanding. Via Rail has announced the construction of a high-speed rail corridor with stations in Sharbot Lake and Smith Falls. This will happen. When will our riding elect practical leadership that will bring our voices to the decision-making table in Ottawa? Perhaps after winning six elections, Scott Reid might consider retirement and join his family’s business, Giant Tiger.
