Don't get me started on the Royals! I can still name you the lineups of each year from about 1980 until they left - and not just the Tabaracci's & Gilmour's etc ... I'm talking about the Paul Wilkinson's and Craig Brocklehurst's!! I will actually be writing an entire post about the Royals / Colts / Aces / Comets shortly. By the way - if you live in Owen Sound ... you can't vote for mayor here ;) But I appreciate the sentiment. Dan - thanks for the reply.

People see the logo before the rest of advertisement. I really think this is a good one. But something about borders ie to Quebec and US should probably be mentioned, as it can benefit some shipping buisiness'. Now the fact that it has been hired out of Cornwall, is not the best idea. But I can also see perhaps they needed an outside look on the inside. I grew up in Cornwall, and i am proud to say, i have survived it. Cornwall is a depressed town, for one we should have never sold out on our beloved ROYALS. I talk to people out here in mid-western Ontario and they remember Cornwall for two reasons one THE ROYALS and the other is that stink we used to have. It is for sure, TIME FOR CHANGE in Cornwall. I vote Eric Bergeron for MAYOR. The logo is an important part of Cornwall. People see the logo before the rest of advertisement. I really think this is a good one.

In my opinion the Library's logo, designed by a local graphic designer is better than what the City spent on their current logo. I would have preferred to paid that local graphic artist 25k, she does way better work! Here is a question I have ask the Econ Dev dept time after time --- show me a 5-10 year develop plan on paper... still to this day NOTHING. how can you brand a city if you have no clue what you want it to be 10 years from today? Cornwall...grow up! Go back to how you use to be in the 30-50's! What ever happen to you? Oh ya.. past mayor's who controlled the labor market and rejected good industry ...oh and let's not forget that time Cornwall rejected to have a University in our city... what dumb asses!
