Heard this past week in Surrey is talk of a new slate to be put together in time for the November Municipal elections.
As the story goes the new slate would be headed by mayoralty candidate Barinder Rasode.
Her slate would take on the invincible Surrey mayor Dianne Watts.
Apparently the Mayor is not so incincible with the lack of police and the recent Surrey hockey Mom Murder.
Watts has done a great job in her tenure as Mayor but so has Rasode in her role as a councilor.
I met her last week at the Surrey Women’s Center.She was excellent and would be a good mayor too!
It would also be good for the city to have some strong competition for Watts come the election as the last election was a cakewalk for her and her slate and a lot of people didn’t even bother to vote.
It also adds fuel to the fire of the other rumor drifting around Surrey.
That would be Watts leaving to run federally for the Conservative party.
