Prior to being elected Mr. Carruthers said the Ward 2 seat would demand careful planning as it is dotted with ham- lets where people have become accustomed to a quiet way of life. He vowed to protect the neighborhoods in the Ward 2 boundaries. "Obviously the ward is going to be under the greatest development pressure of any of the wards, and we certainly have to address that care- fully," he said.

Interestingly, he led Mr. Moffatt in advance polls in Ward 1 last year, then lost the vote as more polls were tallied on elec- tion night. The final numbers, which came in almost an hour and a half after polls closed, gave him the nar- row margin over Mr. Grosvenor -- and the win. "I'm delighted.
