This is where it gets interesting as my position is noted to be `one <br />having care or charge of something' and offers responsibilities as a <br />guardian or keeper of sorts. <br />A dictionary definition offers Warden to be the governor of a town, <br />district or fortress. Now I know we have Fort Malden within our <br />County, but that jurisdiction where canon fire is often still heard during <br />celebratory festivals in Amherstburg, well I'll just leave those volleys <br />in the capable hands of Mayor Wayne Hurst. Thus the only other <br />fortress that I have seen as of late, is one depicted in a recent daily <br />newspaper of record in our region. The image, as I recall, clearly <br />shows a highly guarded and secure domain named Fort Eddie. In my <br />humble opinion, it appears Mayor Francis had all well in hand <br />protecting that fortress, thus my role again as a guardian is as they <br />say in legalese "ultra vires" or for those Latin aficionados, simply it is <br />outside of my jurisdiction and domain. <br />Another definition and common misconception of Warden are those <br />that have asked which prison am I in charge of? While I do not claim <br />to be a chief official over any cell block or can I offer freedom from the <br />sentencing of prisoners, some have suggested that I impose a <br />lockdown during some council meetings or even assign members to <br />solitary confinement for a period of time. I've certainly resisted such <br />encouragement to date and all of my county councillors are sure to <br />support me on that note. <br />2 <br />
