Yes, but I am going to wait another 3 years for it to finish before I decide. By that time what they are doing may be in vogue

Agreed about the wasted corn, absolutely ridiculous. I disagree about Redman though, not poor leadership, none what so ever, she has been a career politician which just equals the same ole.

This is what many people are missing. They think that Grand River staying open for urgent care is the same as an emergency room. It is not, not even close.
