I want to thank you, Mr. Tufts, because I in fact had some firefighters work on my campaign who are very disappointed that their dues went to pay for political posturing. When they volunteered on my campaign they did it of their own will. If they made an investment, it was an individual investment, and I too think there is great merit in what Mr. Hiebert is proposing. Nurses in previous elections have also worked on my campaign and have been very critical sometimes of how the dues are spent and not accounted for.
Thank you.
