Now, how about Pattullo Place?
2009-07-09 / Editorial
OUR CONGRATULATIONS go out to Vic Large, whose 28 years on Orangeville council have finally been recognized through the naming of a new street in the town as Victor Large Way.
Now a resident of Vancouver Island, Mr. Large was Dufferin's warden in 1990 after serving eight years as the town's mayor.
Other council members from the same period, including the late Gord Bredin and Gord Courtney, have long been similarly recognized, but there has been at least one serious omission.
Although his name is apparently on a list of those being considered, Joseph "Squire" Pattullo has not yet been memorialized, despite the fact he was not only a former mayor but also a somewhat famous magistrate whose rulings were said never to have been overturned.
