Thomas Aquinas Student Enjoys being Mayor for a Day

A Thomas Aquinas student has received a crash course in municipal politics.

Emily Bernie was the winner of a Mayor-for-a-day contest.

She shadowed mayor Dave Canfield yesterday as he did his rounds.

She says there are a couple of issues she'd like to see addressed in the city, including more of a focus on a youth and improved winter tourism. 

Bernie presided over yesterday's committee of the whole meeting, along with three runner's up in the Mayor-for-a-day contest.
