Those councillors in Winnipeg are pikers when it comes to spending tax dollars! St. Albert AB (pop. 60,000 or less than 1/10 of Winnipeg) sent their entire 7 member council along with their spouses to the Federation of Canadian Municipalities meeting in Newfoundland. The cost to send the spouses alone is estimated at $15,000.

timr...Finally!! Somebody beat out Edmonton's "silly" council.We actually left 1 behind to run the city! Ummmmmm...begs the question that maybe our city council is a wee bit overstaffed if they only need 1 to run it for a week???
