Its because this kind of a City has NO ambitious

What are you referring to when you say 'City'?

The wholesale administrative entity known as 'The City of Hamilton'?

Its Council, made up of Councillors from 15 wards?

Or its people?

I think that when most criticism of 'Hamilton' gets levied, it's being directed at the first two...but there's a certain (almost wholly unexamined) acknowledgement that its people keep electing/re-electing the second one, while the first one is an inarguable culture that has its own slant on things, irrespective of the profile supported by media.

So; are the people of Hamilton...who keep putting people in office who are lacking 'visionary leadership' (can't see there's much to counter this notion, not in the behaviour of Council just this term)...are they 'unambitious'? Do they not, in the main, see what this article points up as being something that needs to be addressed? If so, is this a case of a genuine philosophical rift? Is it merely parochial thinking? Is it ignorance, the sort of stuff that needs to be countermanded by leaders at City Hall who have vision, or by community leaders outside the electronic environs?

Who exactly has 'NO ambitious' in this scenario?
