You're right! At last an administration that shows a hint of understanding communications suggests some hope of actually revitalizing this city. The short video is slick and stiff at the same time, but compare it to the forbidding blue booklet of city events that the city puts out every month it's quite exciting. I may actually want to participate in some of the activities it briefly touches upon.

Now imagine a city web-site that made use of links to a number such videos posted at UTube. Imagine the number of local writers, videographers, musicians etc. employed by such a project (compared to the few employed by an expensive Spec ad, the profits from which bleed down the QEW to Torstar.) Imagine the creative ideas such a program might inspire. Imagine the number of people from outside Hamilton that might see them and be inspired to visit. Imagine those same videos playing at local tourist information centres. Imagine them on local cable. The mind reels.

Literally.
