What is Municipal Watch?

Municipal Watch is a Canadian organization founded by Stella Ambler. Stella has been involved in federal and provincial politics for 37 years. She came to realize how much authority and spending power is held at the municipal level of government and how little attention is paid to what goes on in town and city halls. She further thought that the actions of municipal officials are often left unchecked and opposing voices are rare and often go unheard. Also there is no "official oppostion " to hold municipal governments to account. She feels that there is a need to expose bad decisions and policies at the municipal level. Her goal is to persuade our municipal governments to focus on efficient service, to deliver better quality of life for everyday working taxpayers.
