Coffee Chat With Colin Best

Posted by on Jul 15, 2009 | 3 comments

I am starting a new section on my blog where I’ll chat with a fellow Miltonian about the town.  I am kicking it off today.  Colin Best, the Local and Regional Councillor for Wards 2 & 4, is my first guest.  Colin Best not only works and lives in Milton, he was actually born and raised in the town as well.  As a result, he approaches Milton-related issues with a passion that’s unmatched.  He has been a local or regional councillor since 1980 (with some gaps in between).  If you do not see the full post then please click the ‘Continue Reading‘ link...
