Hey,

Ok, so this guys name is Rob Vallee, running for Alderman in Prince Rupert. He is a past owner of DataBoy Computers here. He walked on his partners because he thought they were treating him badly. They were getting pissed at him because of the way he was running the company. He invited two employees to become partners then left the business after taking a draw on his shareholders account over time. That amount exceeded his credit by more than $5000.00.
Items one of his partners says are true-
He was audited a couple years ago and as recently as last year there were Canada Revenue agents looking for him at the store that he bailed out on.
He deducted money from employees for extended medical and when two of the employees went to the dentist they were presented with invoices that the dentist said they had to pay personally as there was no extended coverage for them. It is not known who ended up paying after all.
His partner who now runs DataBoy has had to pay off a number of checks and fees they incurred as a result of checks he bounced to suppliers. He also bounced some payroll checks as well.
He now runs a business out of a converted ambulance rather than a store front.

Problem, the public is unaware of how he runs his show and he is running high enough in the polls to the point that he will probably get in.
Yikes !!
