Less than 25 per cent of the eligible voting population actually voted in the 2018 municipal election, according to Civic Info BC. The vast majority (over 75 per cent) of Prince George residents didn’t care who was handling the city’s business. Our civic leaders in turn acted as anybody lacking oversight would do. The cost overrun is a prime example of what a lack in oversight leads to. Whether Mayor Hall allowed the parkade ordeal to get this far due to pure incompetence or some malicious intent is unknown but the fact is that millions of taxpayer money is now down the drain.
