Getting closer. Thank you for your vocal support!

Hello Kitchissippi,

Jeff Leiper here. First of all, I want to thank you all for the overwhelming support for our "Have your say" online debate project. You can see the results here, but I think we more than made our point, with more than 50 of you writing more than 110 comments countering, line for line, every part of Ms. Hobb's challenge to Jeff Leiper. And it was noticed. David Reevely called out Councillor Hobbs for her negative campaign approach this week in the Ottawa Citizen.

But what I want to focus on today is not the turmoil of the last few years, but hope for better in the next few years. That's why I asked my team to pick out some of the hopeful lines from the online debate and added some thoughts about how we can move from negavity to constructive, critical dialogue.

We published them here: Let's be better. Together.

Please take a look, share the post with undecided friends and family, and leave your own hopes for a better KItchissippi in the Comments section. I'll share those by Twitter and Facebook over the weekend.

Please also keep sending people to jeffleiper.ca. We've streamlined the front page to help people make their final voting choice.

Thank you so much,

Jeff Leiper
And the Kitchissippi for Jeff Leiper campaign team.
