      Mike Cote: 22, 2663 Lakeshore Blvd. W. Single. He is an assistant greens keeper at a golf course and ran unsuccessfully for trustee in Ward 1 in 1978 and 1980. He believes the school board should view declining enrolment as a chance to increase the teacher/student ratio. He is opposed to the section of Bill 127 that would reduce the decision-making power of local trustees.
