1. … including brain fog, confusion and fatigue. Combined with the effects of a head injury in late 2016

   Wait. What!? You mean THAT isn’t disqualification enough!?

   1. Yeah, it’s almost like the kinds of stuff the deadline was meant to bring to light.

   2. Based on most cities and the decisions of councils, I would assume brain damage is a requirement.

      1. Most certainly brain damage is an asset for an MP.

2. And I would add one more factor, your honor. The dog ate my paperwork.

3. I can’t breathe with a mask on, I don’t need a doctor to sign off on it.

   1. I tried that with a certain place I dealt with for several years. Not only wasn’t it accepted by the cerebus at the front desk, she reported me to the boss who threatened to terminate our arrangement if I didn’t “behave”. In other words, “Be a good boy, wear your mask, or else.”

      I’m taking my business elsewhere.

      1. Did you kick her in the nuts? This where my usual comments on cowardly Canadians comes in. Did you tell her just what she is and where she should go?

         1. She caught me off guard when she verbally attacked me, though I behaved like a perfect gentleman.

            There was no point in stooping to her level. As some wag once said, never argue with an idiot because people might not tell the difference between the two of you.

4. Another participation ribbon winner.

5. Remember when Hillary skated around criminal security email breaches and negligence in the Libyan ambassador’s murder?
   She couldn’t recall 4000 times because she had hurt her head, so what difference does it make now?
   Indeed, regarding this councilman, what difference does it make now? We are becoming a society of hypocrites.

6. These rules are pathetic.
   I ran for mayor in a town in Alberta.

   You can write whatever you want. Nobody cares.

7. Can taxpayers pay their property taxes late without penalty? All types of people suffer mutely from real shit and maintain their functioning capabilities because they are responsible for others. How would the judge like to receive his pay cheque late? Limp dickheads are in charge everywhere.

8. One would think the conditions that caused the breach in protocol are also fair reasons to disqualify one from holding public office.

   That aside, I appreciate the fact that Darren rescinded his vote on the scaled garbage bins and pricing scheme, delaying our idiot city government a few years before cramming it through.

9. “Brain Fog” is the prime requirement of any politician.

   1. And when it escapes, it becomes cerebral flatulence?

10. “Long COVID” will live on as the preferred medical excuse for lazy and malingering civil servants to get paid while refusing to do their jobs.

11. I guess serving the public and fulfilling his duties and responsibilities to the “best of his ability”plays no part in his lust for Position of Authority,no matter at what cost.
    Failing to file,is the least of his treachery.

12. He was suffering from exhaustion after destroying his opponent’s election signs in the middle of the night.

13. Why do they even have a deadline? My God, if something that significant can slip the mind of a candidate, what will his potential term in office be like?
    I was unaware that kickbacks were illegal your Honour. I’ve been under a lot of stress lately, and the brain fog and the hit in the head lately are just –
    “ I’m going to dismiss this case “
    Yay, democracy wins again.

14. It really doesn’t matter. If you don’t file ANY expenses the bureaucracy just shrugs and figures there’s nothing to see. He could’ve just filed an empty form.

    The whole thing is very unrigorous.

    The bureaucracy just wants to check off paperwork boxes.

15. Need look no further than Canada’s Anti Terrorism Laws, which specifically absolve all Cops and greasy Politicians who break CRIMINAL LAWS including murder.

    Kate is right LAWS are ALWAYS JUST FOR THE LITTLE PEOPLE.
    All brought to you by the anal retentive SHITCON HARPER. Canadian Law is WROL and mostly Immoral.

16. In a real country, that man would be made to account for himself.

17. Now, tell me again about how Nuremberg 2.0 is going to save you. Those judges are “different”, didn’t you know.

18. seems to me many in here never have a memory lapse, the bullshit in here is in over drive on this one, the guy forgot, and made up an excuse, something that happens to ALL of us at some time!

    And the runner up in the election prescribed to the same lapse of memory!

    1. Good point. That other guy who didn’t file his expenses on time (and who makes no excuses, just admits he didn’t get around to it,) isn’t on City Council. But it’s o.k. for Darren Hill to break that rule because he is on City Council.

       Actually, Councillor Hill made up several excuses which, if they are true, are good reasons why he ought not to have taken upon himself the burdens of public office. He’s done enough, he should take the rest of his life off.

19. Danyliuk? Danyliuk. Hmm, does that name sound Liberal to you?
