“The biggest
pieces of
cake…”
The Editor,
In my letter, published in The Tribune-
Express on Friday 2nd, 2011, I was asking
65 e MEUBLES LEVAC FURNITURE
/ Up to
myself why Grenville-sur-la-Rouge
Councillors Noël Baril, Pierre Lessard and
Diane Monette had left, 2 years ago, a
meeting chaired by Mr. Jean-Marc Fillion,
Mayor, andwhyAlainCarrière,Noël Baril,
Pierre Lessard and Diane Monette did not
show up at meetings of November 22 and
24th, 2011 chaired by Mr. John Saywell,
Mayor. I also asked if it was because these
individuals wanted to defy the mayors, or
if it was because these individuals were
refusing the authority of themayors, or if it
was because these individuals wanted to
control the mayors and all of the Council.
Well, onTuesday,November29th, 2011,
at ameeting of Council, we got the answer.
Diane Monette,
Alain Carrière, Noel Baril and Pierre
Lessard want to control everything, the
Mayor and the Council. These four
individuals adopted a series of motions,
isolating by their range the rest of the
Council.

Moreover,theyreformedallcommittees,
while keeping, themselves, the biggest
pieces of cake, to celebrate their victory.
Thus, for 2012, Noël Baril will sit on 4
committees earning $9, 516 in salary and
allocations, Pierre Lessard will sit on 5
committees earning $11,312 in salary and
allocations, Diane Monette will sit on 4
committees earning $10,238 in salary and
allocations and Alain Carrière will sit on 2
committees earning $8,439 in salary and
allocations. These4 individuals left crumbs
for Daniel Gauthier (2 committees and
$8,081 insalaryandallocations) andTeresa
Foreman (l committee and $5,566 in salary
and allocations). And to really celebrate
their victory, Alain Carrière, Noël Baril,
PierreLessardandDianeMonette lowered
the salary and allocations of John Saywell
by $3,519.98.
But, the most interesting part in all of
this is that Diane Monette, Noël Baril and
PierreLessardkept, for themselves, 3of the
most important committees of Council,
excluding all other members of Council.
Wow!
