Les is More

The John Les story gets worse, not better.

The Sun has dug through the records and found that Mr. Les was involved in several real estate plays while serving on Chilliwack City council, including while he was mayor.

Mr. Les seems to have followed all expected procedures, but already a strong whiff of favoritism and special consideration is tainting this story.

One former councillor voted in favor of a rezoning of a property in which Les was involved and then bought one of the subdivided lots. Cute.

Mr. Les may or may not be exonerated of any and all charges. But for the moment this is not looking good.
