Former mayoral candidate accuses Christian of short temper
KAMLOOPS — There were a few heated moments at Kamloops city hall this afternoon.
At the public podium, former mayoral candidate Mike McKenzie angrily accused Mayor Ken Christian of being hot-headed during a meeting between the two in Christian’s office yesterday.
McKenzie says he came to see Christian Monday to discuss the Kinder Morgan TransMountain pipeline expansion project.
“I came to sit with the mayor yesterday to ask those questions. How you acted got a negative response from me because you don’t have the right to treat me that way,” said McKenzie. “I would like to know why you turned red, physically moved closer to me and flipped out on me for calling you ‘someone like a colonizer.’
