Stephanie Nichols - Re: (not urgent) Ajax...

Jen and David,

For context the quote I posted in the original email is apparently pulled directly off of the SLR website... doesn't bode well for their ability to look in-depth at the probable city wide negatives associated with the project being approved. And I say negatives because the company will without a doubt cover off the 'positives' in the 'lovely' docomements that they submit to the BCEAO.

...I know that council and the public will dictate what our consultant focuses on but the post has rendered me somewhat skeptical of the choice of consultant ...do you believe SLR will be able to "satisfactorily" address ALL of the areas of concern Kamloopsians will FOR SURE bring forward as per the public consultation plan within the provincially dictated time frame?

Despite the way I might come across... you are the director of the most challenging department, in the entire city, whilst acting as the municipal representative on the TWG and you, and your crew/team, are doing a stellar job.

...the better job the consultants do the less work it is for us right?

David- I get uber nervous when this type of thing 'crops up' because as one of the nine voices on city council I know (because I've seen the annual director financial disclosures) that your investments are "heavily weighted" toward funds that are into oil, gas, coal, etc, etc, and that hasn't changed over the last 3 years of annual director financial disclosures I've seen. I'm nearly certain that your professionalism totally supercedes personal biases but it makes me wonder [[long into the wee hours occasionally]] because you, as CAO, and your directors, and their managers, have a lot of sway every day of the week (some Tuesdays inclusive). Having said that I think you're doing a phenomenal job also. Just nix the "extractive resource stocks" for f*ck sakes!!!! #climatechange

...At least live up in Aberdeen near the mine site so that probably balances off your investment choices to some degree when it comes to the open pit mine "proplorsell".

Donovan ,

Your email is beyond unprofessional. It is one thing to question yet again SLR as the consultant.

However I can not believe, or sit quiet, as you not only question Mr. Trawin's professionalism but also his choice of investments and where he may or may not choose to live. The topper is a not so subtle and totally crass comment trying to direct him to divest of stocks of his choosing for his private investment reasons.

Your comments and add on's in this email and many others ( using an asterisk doesn't make the swearing better) are in my opinion continually treading a fine line. I would suggest we meet to go over what appropriate communications are .

You can choose not to but I would point out that other cities Councils have had to wind up putting members under censure and I would frankly not be opposed to looking into this if these types of comments and email tones continue.

I'm incredibly saddened and shocked by Donovan's response below and feel compelled to express a desire to see some strong formal censure for this behaviour. Arjun
