Hmmm , not really surprising !
I assume the PAC didn’t even rate a mention? Being prepared and seizing any opportunity from the Canada games through the presentation of our city wasn’t on the radar? And odd that sporting venues and parks or trails doesn’t get a mention?
I guess if one has options limited then those other issues are considered irrelevant to the outcome of the survey?
So, this survey was done in July? Who did they call, where and when? I would if they pick such a small area to call that they can skew the results? Never, ever get these surveys?!If I did , they would get a piece of my mind.
ntkr13… they usually show up as “Unavailable” on your call display, or out-of-prov number.
Apparently they weren’t too concerned that our water is going up by fifty bucks as is the garbage too.. Just look at the City website

I have lived in P.G for over 14 yrs and have never been asked to do a survey?
So they called people with land lines who were willing to do the survey. Must have been a pretty small sample.
I would love to know the ratio of how many people hang up vs. how many people who actually take the survey?
I hope the surveys only involved property owners who pay taxes. They are the ones who pack the load.
