OSHAWA COUNCIL, AND CLERKS DEP'T- AND REGIONAL CLERKS- TO BE ADDED AS UNEDITED CORRESPONDENCE TO RELATED ITEM--- HHR RIDE AND SMALL CLAIMS/LEGAL/FINE ISSUE FOR RESIDENT LOU DEVUONO:
This is the cry that should be ringing out, outside the Monday nite (tomorrow nite) city council meeting!! City Hall needs to stand down, ZERO THE BILL FOR THE HEROES!!! -ZERO THE BILL IN /HEADED TO SMALL CLAIMS TO $5600 to resident and Founder of the Heres Highway Ride Lou DeVuono ( http://www.heroshighwavride.com) -for any and all services provided by the City of Oshawa - and further, copied are the Regional council offices for their bill against Lou and the Ride- for over $3000! City Hall needs to smarten up, you are a collective bully and thorn in the side ofresidents who work hard, and you are a collective PR DISASTER for our city. A slap in the face of Durham Police, and troops everywhere. All policing and troops everywhere, actually.
BILLZEROED FORTHE HEROS! BILLZEROED FORTHE HEROS! BILLZEROED FOR THE HEROS! BILLZEROED FOR THE HEROS! BILLZEROED FOR THE HEROS! BILLZEROED FOR THE HEROS! BILLZ EROED FORTHE HEROSI BILL ZEROEDFOR THE HEROS!
I HAVE blind copied some of my friends/supporters here, some who are active military/related to active and or- retired veterans, some in their 20s' .... some older ..... some are seniors. YOU all at Oshawa city hall and the Regional HQ/Council- need to know what the heck this heavy handed city hall is up to badgering good people and causes again, wasting our tax monies and resources, on this crap. And driving good news and events out of Oshawa.
Council members and staff causing the problems are the usual suspects from top to bottom, and are Mayor John Henry, John Aker, Roger.._OCICED.. - ...... }3ouma, Bob Chapman, Nancy Diamond, Nester Pidwerbecki, among others who generally cause problems, carry mean spirited grudges, and use tax monies to assassinate the characters of good people. Decent people.
YOU all need to stand up for Lou and his cause, to support the veterans - city hall is harassing him with a small claims court motion going after him for IN KIND services the city promised to donate to him to honour the Canadian forces, vets. and our deceased soldiers who laid down their lives.
That bill is for the well publicized amount of about $5600. How much negative press did this heavy handed administration cost Oshawa AGAIN? How much in legal fees and processes on this? How much did it cost the city and business district downtown when 3000 bikers did NOT come to town for this? I thought you mayor John Henry, said in your 2010 campaign speeches, that "OSHAWA IS OPEN FOR BUSINESS"??? --Do I need to go on????? You on city council and in city hall are costing this city, far more than you (we) could ever expect, as those charged with governing our city.
This is just your latest Municipal 2olitical mess city hall has laid waste onto the residents of our city. This this poor guy, Lou, who is loving the press the OCIC!D"" ~n city hall have caused for this great cause. I highly recommend Dan, we gather some residents to stand with us, because the other 150k other people who ARE allowed in city hall, and I know what (in part) is going to happen at council that nite.
I cannot think any of OUR RESIDENTS will be impressed with the latest (continued) antics of you at Oshawa City Hall on this one, and this is the type of garbage, that made me run for council in 2010, as a regular guy... .. Not a Public Relations nitemare like many of you at city hall.
-So this saga continue, the«OCIC!D""- bshawa council and city hall, harasses a great event, to honour our vets, throw the huge bill at this guy, and another black mark against council, and our great city of Oshawa. I actually wondered if they were going to continue with this idiocy for this matter dragging on ...... BUT YOU DO!!!!!! Shame on YOU ALL.. .. AGAIN. Thousands would continue to come downtownwearly, to this event, guess who on city I Regional council gave this guy a hard time, among them? Yes- the usual "" few, like mayor John Henry.... Roger Bouma, John Aker, Nancy Diamond, Nester Pidwerbecki, and Req. Councillor Bob Chapman, who is a long time member of the Ont. Military Regiment downtown. BLOCKED per Sec. 55, BL-126-75
"As the fire chief and council, copied on the following email literally a few mins ago ...... there is a substantiated rumour going around, and it is this, and I want an answer on this hot issue going around, as city hall disrespects our troops and forces, and it is balded for you below: Is this the case and when was this said and where? I copied this word for word from someone apparently in the know online:
"And just another fun fact about Oshawa and the Support of our Troops...... T he Fire department has been told (by Council) not to be on the bridges when our Fallen Heroes are brought Home."
Barry Dutton We need to support residents who CHALLENGE Oshawa city hall, time and again, on garbage like this, that is part of the problem. I am one of those residents, but what do they care.... city hall makes untruths up, spreads it, and bans watchdogs with a spine, like myself and DanielS. Hammond, for example, rather than admit they are bunch of lll.OCICEDPifsec: ... I!C-1,...,.'bullying residents ... and dishonouring our vets and what Canada has stood for. (One of my many Facebook posts on this the last few days, FYI)
Internal City of Oshawa meeting correspondence relating to this matter is here-
BI LL ZEROED FOR THE HEROES! - Just try to look at your moral compass city hall, whatever you have left of one, that you have not sold out for political and bureaucratic gain. Throw the local Oshawa and Regional bills out against Lou and the HHR event. Just do it.
Let's hope you do, because God knows, you cannot do anything else right, along with other CAN Charter Issues like banning residents for no reasons and trample Civil Liberties, issuing trespass orders to residents and slapping our troops in the faces like you do.
John Henry, stop telling the media garbage about your daughter in the Forces. She is NOT- she is a rich kid in class nice and safe every day, at the RMC, you have more spin and half truths on things than the washing machines up in the Nonquon coin laundrymats.
:bee many residents who need to know and be protected from the Oshawa city hall repeated attacks on truth, justice and the Civil Liberties we SHOULD be able enjoy .... everywhere but in Oshawa!

Locat ion - Heard on the news about the charge for clea n-up for cycle ride in support of our veterans on Highway of Hereos. Absolutely appalled that the cost is not being forgiven.
Details - Anything that can be done to support our veterans should be honoured. Oshawa should be thrilled that the ride stopped in your city. Reconsider t he beaucratic decision.

Location- 2011 stop of Heroes Highway Motorcycle ride.
Details - My concern is this. My very close friend and father of my godchildren was killed in Afghanistan in 2010 by a suicide bomber. The rest of the family has since decided to relocate to the Durham area. I am angry and disappointed that Oshawa and the Region of Durham have decided to take action against this group at this late date. This is how you honour those who gave their life for us to be free citizens. Alii can say is shame on you! spam_prevention- 4

Location - Heroes Highway Ride 2011
Details - The City of Oshawa and Durham Region have demonstrated how petty and small-minded po liticians can damage the very city they represent. The Heroes Highway Ride should be welcomed with open arms, not a demand for payment. It is a black mark on an otherwise heartfelt effort to honour t he soldiers who have served, and died, for ot hers. Hopefully, any other groups who are looking for a city to hold an event, t urn their backs on Oshawa, as many Canadians have already done. Not a proud day for Oshawa. spam_prevention- 4

Details- I just saw a CTV news report of the $10,000 bill that Durham Region is leving on the bikers for use of the Armoury & some parking in Oshawa. Hell---if Oshawa doesn't have enough of a bad rap for a "blue collar" town and the disappointment of visitors to the downtown, now The Region of Durham is BILLING a cause like t his? I haven't been a flag-waver on the bridges, nor I am I a vet; but as an ordinary guy from this Region, and of Canada, I can 't BE LIEVE this. I gotta think too that the blue collar majority of this town won't like it either. Please tell who need to hear this to SMARTEN UP! Ron spam_prevention - 4
