		<title>Campground Suggestion</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The county campgrounds need better rates that more fair for the average joe.

Currently the rate is per unit. This means the rate is the same for a 47 foot RV and it is for a tiny 2 person tent. Problem is a family will use 3 tents and pay 3 times more than the richer family that brought an 30 foot RV that sleeps everyone.]]></description>

		<title>Cars cost less in Wetaskiwin, but everything else costs more.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wetaskiwin needs a new rec centre/pool that is a permanent structure (not a tent that I heart about). Also, we need more retail stores here because I do not wish to have to drive to Leduc or Camrose to shop. (As for Walmart, I never shop there but have been told that prices are more expensive here).

My jingle? Cars cost less in Wetaskiwin, but everything else costs more.]]></description>

		<title>Communication between the residents and city hall has been severed</title>
		<description><![CDATA[<blockquote>Those at city hall seem to be living in a world all their own. Communication between the residents of Wetaskiwin and City hall has been severed by city council's decision to remove advertising from the <em>Wetaskiwin Times</em> because the council is offended by citizens comments. I don’t read the <em>Pipestone Flyer</em> because I don’t live in Millet. I read the <em>TIMES </em>cause it is Wetaskiwin’s newspaper ...

-- bill descalchuk, from <a title="Wetaskiwin Tomorrow Goals" href="http://www.wetaskiwintomorrow.ca/plan" target="_blank">Wetaskiwin Tomorrow Draft Plan feedback</a> (<a title="Communicate in a timely, clear and meaningful way" href="http://www.wetaskiwintomorrow.ca/plan/?p=16" target="_blank">Communication</a>)</blockquote>
What do you think? Has communication been affected with the switch from the <em><a title="Wetaskiwin Times Advertiser" href="http://www.wetaskiwintimes.com/" target="_blank">Times-Advertiser</a></em> to the <em><a title="The Pipestone Flyer" href="http://www.pipestoneflyer.com/" target="_blank">Pipestone Flyer</a></em>?]]></description>
