Dear Editor,

Wisdom can be defined as learning from past experience by not repeating the same mistakes. Experience is the key.

Without experience there are no opportunities to become wise – this is true both on personal and professional levels.

If elected to the city council the inexperience and unqualified would be mentored by sitting council members – who in effect would be ‘driving the bus’ – under which the electorate would be thrown. As citizens we all benefit or suffer from the choice of the majority of voters.

Our community is faced with many issues that should only be decided by experienced and wise leaders – which is why I support Tom Dunlop, Don Petersen, and Mike Murray. Please join me and vote for wisdom.

Yvonne Thompson
