Councillor Court and Bill Farren butting heads once again over the mix of representatives on the pension board. Farren motioned in Common Council Monday that the board include more professionals to carry out its mandate going forward.
Councillor Farren told council he's only asking for what premier Alward himself told council to do. Councillor Court saying the motion is just one more public disrespect of the people on the board, saying that he already has been coming up to him and yelling at him at the mall and at hockey games over the pension board's activities and he doesn't need any more flack.

Despite objections from the Mayor and Councillor Bill MacGuire that Farren's motion was based more on subjective opinion that fact, council voted 5-4 in favour of bringing more professionals on the board.
