Changing the world by building strong local communities!

There are two articles in today's Edmonton Journal that reminded me of a quote that has been attributed to Elanor Roosevelt. The quote says "Small minds discuss people, average minds discuss events and great minds discuss ideas."

The first article I referred to was written by city Councillor Michael Janz. In the article below Councillor Janz  explains the reasons why he voted in favor of increasing the budget to improve Edmonton's network of bike lanes. His article was the best I've read by a city councillor regarding either side of the debate.

The second article (below) is by Edmonton Journal columnist David Staples. Both Premier Danielle Smith and Rachel Notley, leader of the opposition have strong ideas and are good communicators of them. As David Staples writes the winner of the May 2023 election will be the one who wins the battle of ideas.

One of the reasons the focaLOCAL network was developed is to give people in a community a place where they can civilly present, share, discuss, debate, etc. their ideas and thoughts on a variety of issues and topics so don't hold back.
