Councillors Question Mayor's Vision to Cut Jobs

Mayor Larry O'Brien admits it was a "slightly disappointing" day at Ottawa City Hall.

O'Brien is under-fire for suggesting the City of Ottawa could find 200 million dollars in savings and cut one-thousand jobs over the next three-years.

A report for Ottawa's long-range financial planning committee outlines 100 million dollars in savings and 500 jobs that could be cut without affecting services.

Councillor Rick Chiarelli told CFRA News there are still decision to be made about what services the City of Ottawa should be providing before predicting that outcome.

Chiarelli calls suggestions to cut 500 jobs today "ridiculous."

City Manager Kent Kirkpatrick admits some jobs will have to be cut if the City of Ottawa wants to find savings.

The process is now underway to identify areas where positions could be cut.

City Council will set out the priorities for the budget and make decisions on areas to cut spending by the end of the month.

支持渥太华村政府大瘦身 ......

小乡村的政府其实并不需要大城市的规模, 只要村政府运作有效率, 不需多搞花样 (例如建设轻轨或通勤火车之类), 就已经是好好地为人民服务, 村民也没有什么怨言了。

我在各级政府工作27年.这是不容易的事. 我现为市工作,我同意 O'Brien 的观点 -> 太多人. 但 O'Brien 是新人,容易谈理想世界,但很难执行,只有祝福他.....Amen.

呵呵，我看好这事。这次成功了，下次还选O'Brien。

3 years for 1000 jobs, it is not difficult. Why? only thing to do is stop hiring, do not replace retired people. There is 3 to 6% percent natural reduce rate for any work place due to retirement and people move on to other jobs.If there are 10,000 city employee, you will lose 1000 in three years for sure. But the trick is how to keep the same service with less people.

不要太天真了!

这是O'Brien开始为不做市长后，做铺垫了。
三年裁1000个职位，第四年开始就要招1000个职位了。
O'Brien就是做HR做大的。
