[edit] Youth Councillor
Since your username is the same initials as the new Vaughan Youth Councillor, I'm going to assume that you are him :). Anyways, if it is you, I just wanted to congratulate you, that's a huge step for youth in vaughan. I was on the Youth Advisory Committee at one point, let me tell you, it was useless, if not outright disasterous. So good luck with this. You'll be seeing a lot of my dad I'll bet (councillor Shefman). This is a great opportunity for you, enjoy it! pm_shef 01:27, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
- (just a tip, when you're leaving a comment, sign it with four tildes (~) in a row). Anyways, ya, honestly, prepare to be bored, most of what they discuss is zoning and stuff. But its a noble effort nonetheless. I checked out your site and to be honest, I was completely blown away. What you guys have done in 4 years is incredible. Be proud of it. I'm actually at school in Montreal (McGill) so I don't spend much time in Vaughan, but I'm sure you're all doing a great job. pm_shef 06:17, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
For some reason I see this position and cabinet to be a sham. I hope I'm wrong and that MAF can back up the following statement (which is on their site):
"As a caring, concerned young Vaughan citizen, Mark envisions his mandate as the first VYCC to be three-fold. First, to inform Council of the realities facing youth in Vaughan; second, to inform youth of the opportunities afforded to them within the city; and third, to encourage young people to be heard in the community, especially in light of the coming municipal election."
More likely though, this is just another councillor brought in to agree with every the Mayor says. 69.198.130.82 23:10, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
