Put council raises to a vote

If Edmonton city council thinks Edmontonians are in favour of them giving themselves a 21% raise for city councillors and a 14% raise for the mayor, they should take it to the people and ask them to vote on it.

630 CHED put that question on their news poll yesterday and the results are not surprising:

What do you think about city councillors approving a 13-percent raise to take effect after the next election?
80.69% - outrageous!
8.47% - worth every penny
10.83% - What's a raise?
