Re: 鈥淢ayor sounds alarm on CRD鈥檚 salary expenses,鈥� April 30.
Isn鈥檛 it time that 鈥渟ervant鈥� meant something in the title 鈥減ublic servant鈥�? How is it that the Capital Regional District can even consider the executive pay raises it is looking at now? And does Victoria Mayor Lisa Helps need an assistant who is paid two to three times what the typical Canadian earns?
How is it that the 鈥渟ervants鈥� have become the 鈥渕asters鈥�? Is it time to legislate salary caps for most public servants?
These folks are not entrepreneurs who get compensated for the risk they take, but employees of us, the taxpayer.
