"Meanwhile, I'll be in a catch-up position for the next three or four months getting a handle on the job," he stated. Mr. Johnston's career in the municipal government arena began immediately upon his graduation in 1973 from the University of Waterloo's school of urban and regional planning. The 33-yèar-old is a native of the Ottawa area where he grew up on a dairy farm. "Don't laugh," he said when revealing the name of his home village.
