Woods Says Ferguson Had An Unknown Agenda

Former Saint John Common Councillor -- and current St. Stephen Town Manager -- John Ferguson did not offer any proof to back up allegations of gross negligence on the part of the Pension Board.

That testimony delivered by City Manager Pat Woods, who's also a Pension Board trustee.


Woods telling the jury he felt Ferguson had some sort of agenda, the objective of which was unclear and his constant requests for third party reviews of the city's pension plan left the impression something was amiss, even fraudulent.

Woods says if Ferguson was told by former Pension Board trustee David Gould of illegal activity then he should have passed that along to fellow Council members or City Police. Woods maintains the Pension Board had to take action in the face of Ferguson's allegations.

Before going to bed tomorrow night, turn your clocks and watches ahead one hour.
   
The major Canadian exception is Saskatchewan, which is on standard time year-round.
