Mayoral debate set at UTM
Debate on….
Mayoral candidates (from left): Donald Barber, Bryan Hallett and George Winter
stood on the steps of the Living Arts Centre in shadow of the Civic Centre and challenged Mayor Hazel McCallion
to a televised debate in Sept. They'll have their chance tomorrow night at a debate organized by MIRANET at University of Toronto Mississauga.

An all-candidates' meeting for Mississauga's mayoralty candidates being taped tomorrow night for Rogers' Television will be the "best chance for true debate" in the campaign, says one of the organizers.
The format for the two-hour event has been structured to allow participating candidates to have "mini-debates" with each other and to allow a "rapid round" of questions from audience members, who'll include political science students from University of Toronto Mississauga, where the debate will be held.
"Let's get some creative thinking going and some passion," Dorothy Tomiuk, secretary of the Mississauga Residents' Associations Network (MIRANET), which organized the debate along with Rogers, said this morning.
Even before candidates give their opening statements, they'll be stimulated with an opening question — which they've already been given — asking for reaction to a recent statement in the media that Mississauga suffers from "lack of public discussion and opposition, the infrequent exchange of ideas and the overwhelming sense of complacency."
Candidates will be asked to give their reaction to the statements by Toronto Star columnist Christopher Hume at the beginning of the show, which is to be taped for broadcast next Monday, at 5 and 11 p.m., and Oct. 23, at 3 p.m.
Tomiuk said that asking candidates for their reaction to Hume's opinion, which she considers a put-down of Mississaugans, should help spark a lively discussion.
"We believe this will be an ice-breaker for the candidates, engage the viewers' attention and position the stakes we all have in being part of this debate," MIRANET said in a memorandum to candidates, who do not normally get to see questions ahead of time.
Mayoralty candidate George Winter says the debate is exactly the kind of interactive discussion he and fellow candidates Donald Barber and Bryan Hallett were seeking when they challenged incumbent Hazel McCallion to a full debate at a press conference on Sept. 23.
"My fear was that the whole thing (the election campaign) would be a non-event and just another coronation," Winter said.
The timing of the announcement was a coincidence, says Tomiuk, since MIRANET has been working with Rogers since last July to provide a full mayoral debate.
Representatives of 10 local ratepayer groups will be among the questioners in the debate, which will ask candidates for their stances on a wide variety of issues.
Ten of the 17 candidates responded to the invitation to debate by the Sept. 27 deadline. Those who do not participate will be offered a five-minute separate candidate profile at the station.
Those originally participating were: Donald Barber, Dave Cook, Paul Fromm, Ursula Keuper-Bennett, Chakkunny Antu Maprani, Hazel McCallion, Peter Orphanos, Andrew Seitz, Ram Selvarajah and Winter.
However, Barber, a citizen journalist who runs his own political website, has objected to one of the ground rules of the debate, which prohibits candidates from recording it.
Tomiuk says the policy is designed to minimize distractions for the candidates and the audience. "You can't be a candidate and be fiddling with a camera," she said.
Barber has filed an objection with the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission over his concerns and does not plan to participate.
He's refusing to sign an agreement that contains a set of rules candidates must agree to before participating.
"The rules are too dictatorial and fascist," Barber said this afternoon. "It limits what the candidates can say," and gives Rogers the right to edit content before re-broadcast, he complained.
Tomiuk said the rules are intended to ensure "civil" interchange among the candidates.
Hallett, meanwhile, claims he met the deadline for participation, but has been excluded due to a misunderstanding about the content of an e-mail he sent to MIRANET.
He intended to indicate he wanted to be part of the debate, Hallett said.

The Thorn in the live debate issue --Friends of Hazel, Fiends of Hazel and Hazel's Hos
I'm struggling with this --but here's the thinking. Agree 100%. A debate should be live and full entry to the public allowed. But here's the problem. None of the challengers have $$$Harold Shipp$$$ as a backer --meaning, the Fiends of Hazel and Hazel's Hos can marshall Friends of Hazel to pack a room. Now close your eyes and imagine. Or would someone prefer I work up Betty Merkley's December 2, 2009 string-of-t**ds for a taste?...

@ Mantis UTM doesn't use quasi-fascist unaccountable lying knobs like MYTHissauga does.
Regarding Donald Barber you wrote, "it would be hilarious if they had to chase him around the studio like they had to chase him in council chambers, it would be pure comedy gold." Won't happen. McCallion's security guards, like their security bosses are quasi-fascist unaccountable lying knobs who were exempted from the province's Bill 159 Security Act when City Staff sneaked a half dozen by-laws onto the floor after Council had passed 30 others. Council then rubber-stamped exemption of these security guards from the provincial public complaints system so they could enjoy the fraud that allows them to "confess" to the Security director and stop any investigation from Human Resources. That corruption wouldn't happen at UTM because they use Special Constables instead of the unethical swill that Hazel McCallion encourages. Thank you once again for allowing me to show how the by-law was sneaked past the public at: www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RI_bjZMeVo

No, I didn't forget that he could have been deleted with offensives. I suggested exactly that the first time he lied about responding. The thing is, I know where I posted the questions and I watched carefully for a response. I suppose he could have posted it in the middle of the night and then got three clicks before dawn, but Occam's razor tells me he simply lied. His false bravado with the "hahaha you can't find it" just makes him look more and more like a little kid caught lying. I mean, isn't that how a badly behaved six-year old reacts when caught in a lie? (I might be overestimating ConcernedLiar's maturity a bit there...)

Play By The Rules Or Don't Play At All
If fringe candidate Donald Barber won't play by the rules (He can't even obey a judges order not to video tape a court room) and refuses to sign the agreement then don't let him participate. It's not as if he has more than a handful of supporters anyway. Although it would be hilarious if they had to chase him around the studio like they had to chase him in council chambers, it would be pure comedy gold.

He likes to pretend to himself that he's got me searching all over for it but of course I KNOW where I posted the question, and it took less than 30 seconds to prove he was lying." Of course he lies but you forgot something. All it would take is for three "Offensives" to take ConcernedResident's comment OUT! Right? However, there's an exchange where I suggest to CR to back up his comments and he assured me he does. That he's not easily cut-and-pasting it again, yes, suggests he's lying. Just want to point out that it isn't a 100% given is all.

Notice how he has also fabricated a wonderful little "MO" for me that anyone who would bother to spend 5 minutes looking here (don't know why anyone would) will quickly see is like most of ConcernedCoward's comments: a complete lie. This is what a strawman is, and why I mention them so often. ConcernedLiar seems to have trouble with the concept, just like missy2. Interesting.

@ coalition, Uatu, ThinkAboutIt, Therese et al. For the record
I failed to qualify for tonight's ROGERS debate because I stupidly didn't read the MIRANET rules carefully enough. And I had trouble getting to sleep because I knew the degree to which I failed. I was going to go AT her. Shove her own words right back at here in front of the cameras and draw her honesty/credibility into question. Was prepared to be kicked out of the debate too. And the irony (smiling as I type this) is I failed to follow Policy! Now here's the difference between me and Hazel McCallion and her employees. I ADMIT TO THAT FAILURE! Whereas they lie that they "follow policy very, very very diligently".

Found that comment yet? Love your M.O. It is so hilarious, cause it;s the same every time. First, when you don't like what's been said, start with the "strawman" routine. Then, when that doesn't work, lay on the insults. This is followed by accusing the poster of being someone else. Finally, when all else fails, you call them a coward and a liar.

I felt badly for Jim Tovey. He didn't get remotely to what he wanted to say. And I was just getting really into it and his time was up. He expressed surprise that it was four minutes. So was I! The one who's waaaaay out there is this young guy who wants the City of Mississauga to sell insurance to residents. If he knew how the City screws people over, he'd never entrust them with insurance. I mean the City would accept our money. Just find infinite ways to insist our cars aren't really dinged --or that the senior run over by the latest bus isn't really run over.

Hey guys get this!
I just received an email that I'm not one of the people allowed at the Rogers taping. Imagine my puzzlement. Turns out their pdf file isn't cut-and-pasteable. Sent them the Rogers agreement. The 100-word bio. Can't find a trace of the three lines I'd cut-and-pasted into my message. Of course they weren't cut-and-pasteable. And this evening I arrived at the Orchard Heights debate without my speech and I had to bug out. My subconscious doesn't want me up there. And of course I never expected MIRANET to send a courtesy message saying I'd forgotten to attach the "I accept unconditionally..." along with the Rogers contract and 100-word bio I did send. I'm a tad miffed. Today I spent 13-bucks on a full roll of duct tape just for tomorrow!

Perhaps It's the growing realization that the whole inquiry will have been a total waste of money that will end up issuing a report that mirrors the city's own lawyer's report on the issue.

Mantis, Mantis, Mantis. The City of Mississauga LIES. Not only does it LIE, it's CHRONIC
The City of Mississauga even LIES about LYING! And get this! No one believed it back in 2005-2006. So how can a regular citizens prove his local government is little more than a Litany of Lies bundled in an entity that shows 8 out of 10 characteristics of a sociopath? You compile evidence! Biggest lie? Right at the Inquiry. Hazel McCallion, "Staff follow policies very very very diligently." Monday's Audit Committee? Presentation confirmed the degree to which they DON'T! Like MIRANET. Go all MYTHissauga publicly. The truth is revealed where the public ain't noticin'. Thanks for your input Mantis! I'll value it just as much as the City of MYTHissauga values "Honesty with the Citizens"!

Such bitterness from a joke of a politician forever chasing a job that you will never, under any circumstances obtain. Face it, the vast majority of voters quite rightly believe that you're a flake. You'll never be mayor of Mississauga and you'll probably never do better than 3 - 5% of the vote. Don't even get started about video recording - we're allvery familiar with your inability to follow the rules on video recording. You couldn't even keep yourself from breaking the rules and secretly video taping the witch hunt going on right now in this city.

What MYTHissauga shovels to the public " the policy is designed to minimize distractions for the candidates and the audience. "You can't be a candidate and be fiddling with a camera,'" and the behind-the-scenes reality, "Recording devices cannot be left unattended to operate remotely within the room." Meaning Barber and I can't. BUT THE AUDIENCE CAN! Going to this is going to be like wading through turds.

@ Mantis I don't *want* to win, nor am I a candidate. Merely registered!
And good timing, this is a cut-and-paste from an email just sent to MIRANET. "'Recording devices cannot be left unattended to operate remotely within the room. Any participating Candidate insisting on operating any recording devices during the Debate will be given a choice: sit in the audience as an observer, or, participate in the Debate without any of their own recording devices operational in the room.' To MIRANET. You've forced me to decide between delivering my message about the urgent need for authentic, independent investigative authority into the MUSH sector to a camera or videotaping/documenting why a Hazel McCallion challenger stands a much higher chance of winning the 649 Jackpot than peeing upwind of $$$$Team Hurricane Hazel$$$$. Now you know why I begin my speeches with the statement that most municipalities in Ontario are 'morally beyond redemption'."

@ Therese Just proves Donald Barber right about MIRANET is all.
Here's the MIRANET videotaping rules. "NOTE: In the event a participating Candidate does not bring a supporter to the Debate, the Candidate will still not be allowed to operate any recording devices themself [sic] during the Debate. Recording devices cannot be left unattended to operate remotely within the room. Any participating Candidate insisting on operating any recording devices during the Debate will be given a choice: sit in the audience as an observer, or, participate in the Debate without any of their own recording devices operational in the room." Normally just to go up in front of Council I need to take an anti-anxiety med. I have no idea how to deal with something like this televised debate. It's SO beyond my experience because of my life-long stage fright. Bring a "campaign supporter"? I don't have a campaign! Now it seems that unless I have an attended camera, I can't videotape. And it's vital to have a complete gavel to gavel record of this ...this --Ritualized Drama of Mutual Pretense. To you

Clearly MIRANET is like the City of MYTHissauga! It's what she doesn't say that you need to know! WHAT distraction?! These MIRANET twirps won't even let you set up a video camera away from the audience over in a corner and just let it run! And make no mistake this "rule" was crafted to silence both Donald Barber and me. We both know that ROGERS will edit the debates. MIRANET has forced us both to decide between being a speaker --or sitting in the audience. People understand that, right? DENIED even to set up a video camera aimed at the candidates and let it run!
