Making Burlington Prosperous

During my lunch hour yesterday I had a terrific idea for boosting Burlington’s economic prospects.

It involves Oakville, polling and drive-thrus.

You see the Town of Oakville apparently has concerns about the negative impacts drive- thrus at banks and fast food locations might be having on their beautiful town.

So they decided to get input from the public.

I’ve made mine already – ban these environmental disasters - that’s what I say.

And if these out-of -touch Oakvillians – the fools – are taken in by a manipulated internet poll and really go ahead and regulate drive-thrus think what that could mean for our fine city.

Townies from the east will be flocking here in the thousands so they can bank on their backsides and roll up the rim without breaking a sweat.

It is called O-P-P-O-R-T-U-N-I-T-Y. And with some innovative thinking we can really take this one to the bank. Think drive-thru funeral homes, weddings. The mind boggles.

Vote on the Oakville poll at www.oakville.ca. Vote early and often.
