What are your earliest memories of Kingston?
Going to downtown Kingston to shop, also to Gun Boat and Buccaneer beaches to swim.

My garden and, my Koi fish pond.
What would you do if you were mayor (of Kingston) for a day?
I would clean up the city like it has never been cleaned before: garbage removals and enforcing the anti-litter law. I would also implement a system for it to be sustained.
