Best thing of the forum on Tuesday night were the lies ... [edited by admin]
It's time for the RCMP and the rest of us to call in imparied drivers and public drunks even if it is a relative, a business person in the community or a friend. Step up to the plate instead of hiding under it. Wetaskiwin's council could make this community dry, it wouldn't make a difference. Alcoholics and addicts can get what they want when they want.
City Council could make Wetaskiwin dry for all it mattered and there would still be problems. For crying out loud, Hobbema is a dry reserve and duh, everyone, there is more drugs and alcohol out in Hobbema than in Wetaskiwin. The problem is the screwed up dysfunctional alcoholics who don't go for help, run businesses in our community and contribute to the family violence issue in our community. There isn't a school in Wetaskiwin that doesn't have a percentage of students from good families (no race comments at all) who can't send their children to school on time because they are drunk in the morning. Or hats off to the drunk speeders in the middle of the afternoon (which aren't the marginalized because they don't own cars) whipping through the school zones with double the legal limit in their BAC. Honestly wake up, we are a small community with a large drug and alcohol problem.
