Ward 30 race gets tighter

A couple of weeks ago, I personally endorsed Andrew James’s municipal campaign in Ward 30 on the strength of his platform, which courageously called for road tolls and a rapid phaseout of fossil fuels in buildings across the city.  Today, Andrew dropped out of the race and endorsed Liz West.  I cannot endorse Liz West myself.  She seems to be a nice, approachable lady who may be a reasonable voice for the ward, but I can detect no policy commitment that would inspire confidence in the direction she will take at City Hall.
