Township Mayor Rick Green has been using a systematic program of disinformation since the campaign. The disinformation program uses uninformed political supporter pawns to write letters and post comments to the two local newspaper groups. The campaign's primary focus is continue fighting the election by hamming a false idea that Mayor Rick Green is a victim and that Council is just out to get him. Of course we all know the reality is that this is all a smokescreen.
The fact is, this rookie mayor has accomplished absolutely nothing. This is wholly attributable to his bully disposition and his inability to grasp the the essential issues that mayors who are true leaders can. One of the key principles is that once the election is over you lead as mayor by building consensus and serving the people. This is what YOU are elected to do Mayor Green. Green has done a piss poor job of this ability to stop fighting the election and getting on to business. This lack of leadership points to the impotence level being extremely high.
Our the past couple of weeks the Rick Green campaign of disinformation has been operating on overtime as these uniformed and blind Green followers have occupied space in the local newspapers and online once again. But this week in the latest campaign we see clearly some items that could be forming part of a hidden agenda for use by Green in the next election. It is no secret that Green is busy forming a slate and that he is paranoid that Cllrs. Jordan Bateman and Charlie Fox make take a shot at the mayor's seat in the next election. So, the latest letters seek to discredit Bateman and Fox. At the same time, they introduce some themes that appear to be part and parcel of Green's hidden agenda. We've gotten several calls about these issues and several people are of the same mind. Green has some tricks up his sleeve:
Green's Hidden Agenda # 1 - Cut the ToL Fire Department & ToL Staff
“Stop growing the bureaucracy and stop growing the fire department budget.” See link here
It's no secret that since elected, Green has placed significant pressure on the Township Fire Chief and other department heads to find ways to reduce their already slim budgets. Green through this bull fighting could care less about public safety, as long as he could take credit for what appears on the surface to be budget cutting. That is of course until an incident happens, then he will blame the department head. These letter writers should also know that some of the people they quote are City of Langley residents, not Township.
Green's Hidden Agenda # 2 - Allow Soil Deposits and Removals for Select Friends & Supporters
Green extremist Fred McNeil takes issue with Cllr. Charlie Fox for his record of strongly opposing gravel extraction and soil deposit works that could impact the water supply. See the post here. Fox was merely suggesting that the letter writer in question understand the issues more clearly, just as this fine letter writer and this one does. While McNeil, Green and others continue to rant over the Mufford Overpass, the fact remains that several ALR exclusion applications have come before Council and none of these "farm saviours" have attended any of the meetings. Does McNeil's letter open a door for Green to start considering soil deposits and removals now?
Green's Hidden Agenda # 3 - Attack Councillors Jordan Bateman and Charlie Fox
Relentlessly
In additional to Fred McNeil's venom against Cllr. Fox in the above section, McNeil was busy crafting this comment online against Cllr. Jordan Bateman. The Green Disinformation Committee has met and Fred McNeil must have been elected Chair. Congrats Fred on your total misunderstanding of the facts regarding the issues of this Township. Stay at home and listen to Rick Green smokescreens and you will be fine. Keep up the attacks on Bateman and Fox because as you know, your buddy the mayor is going to have one hell of a road to hoe in the next election, as he comes empty handed to the debate table with NOTHING accomplished for the good of the Township. All because he continues to fight the last election and almost every councillor that was elected with him.

Take that Fred - you Horny Toad! By the by......I hope S. Bennet and D. Cummings read this post and realize how stupid they are. The letter they refer to by Mr. Scott, he lives in the City of Langley. How dumb can they be!
Further the letter by K.C. Baker is so bizzare. He and his two cohorts are so out to lunch. They never even made one legitimate suggestion to cut the budget. All they wanted to do was use all the reserves, and create taxable debt and in the end after three or four years put the tax base at 17 to 20% - that does wonders for the Township.....we are broke and have huge tax increases what a legacy Mr. Green. I guess that redefines the GREEN MONSTER, except this isn't Fenway Park.
Lastly, why do to papers publish letters to the editor that are factually lies and they know it. Sequins letter lied, Cummings lettered was factually incorrect, Bakers et all was a lie. Is there no culbability on the part of the paper if they publish lies and don't at least put a rider on the bottom that tells the truth - garbage and no wonder the readship is dropping like a stone. Integrity and ethical conduct are an expectation.
TO LATE TO CUT FIRE DEPT NOW. FIRE DEPT UNION VERY MILITANT AND WELL FINANCED. ANYONE WHO EVEN TRYS TO CUT THEIR BUDGET IS COMMITING POLITICAL SUICIDE.FIRE DEPT MEMBERS THEIR FRIENDS AND FAMILIES CAN SWAY COUNCIL VOTES ENOUGH TO STOP ANY UNFRIENDLY CANDIATE IN THEIR TRACKS.THE TOWNSHIP HAS SO FEW CITIZENS THAT VOTE.
It really isn't a hidden agenda, in fact it is quite the opposite, obvious as all get out! The problem is there are so many suckers out there that fall in line like the lambs off to the slaughter. They may write letters but thos of us in the know and informed realize how silly they look when they can't get their facts straight and write such dribble.
Cannot wait for Bateman and Fox to beat this guy in the next election!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can see the next election all ready Mr. Editor sir................... Tricky Ricky blubbering and blabbering that Council is so mean and nasty and would not let him do anything................... and Fabulous Fox and Brilliant Bateman agreeing............. two of them standing up for the honest taxpayer in this town and saying "We would not let him screw the next generation of Township residents............. We would not let him give the Township away to his slimy friends and insiders Calvin Patterson Russ Sheels Ian Cameron Harvey Mazer Fred MacNeill Darlene Johnston or Ken Baker................ We would not let him waste tax dollars on vanity projects like a stupid chain of office.................. We would not let him get away with promising everything and delivering nothing....................."
Tricky Ricky has wasted 16 months all ready and there is no getting that back.........
All Foolish Fred does is bitch about Bateman. If I were Tricky Ricky's bitching buddy I would hate Bateman too. Bateman can take Mayor McCheese's job any time he damn well wants.
