    Really. I heard Jay Hakim has been tape recording conversations with opticians and then filing complaints with the college. my only advice, if he comes in your shop, watch what you say To him and ask him why he tapes conversations. He might be recording you without you knowing.

    So Jay Hakim tape records conversations??
    Isn't he the same guy that was bringing a paid security guard to college meetings. I sat in on a meeting about a year or so ago and watched Jay and his guard at the meeting. Looked ridiculous and wasn't impressing anyone.

    Who pays for the guard, the college or Jay? Those guards are about $300/day, that's a huge expense for opticians ic the college had to paid him for that.

    Tennispro, Jay is a frame rep and does not dispense.
    You can check on the college website for more info on Jay Hakim. A quick member search confirms that he is not dispensing. You can find it here.

    Question is, why is this guy on the board if he doesn't dispense? What the h*ll would he know about patient care or dispensing?

    Last guy I need judging my future is a frame rep!

    why persecute jay when he has not done anything wrong
    if you have nothing to hide why worry about anyone recording you

    " filling complaints with the college"

    if he does that at the college it would be confidential info at the college
    so whose's leaking it from the college to you?

    OK...so why's he running again? I haven't heard of anyone else going for the college; why would I want him back?

    20/20 I don't have a problem at all with him running or anyone for the matter. He's in my riding, just want to know if I should vote for him. You seem to speak highly of him. What's your take on the guy?

    Why would a frame rep secretly record his opticians who might be his customers? He must not sell too many frames.

    Flyingeyeguy I'm with you. 20/20 & tennispro are not who they appear to be. I find it odd that an "ophthalmic tech" from flushing NY, such as 20/20, would give a damn about anything in Ontario. Look at 20/20s posts, mostly knocking the college of ontario.

    As for tennispro...I've met Jay Hakim, and in my opinion I'd vote for someone else. Hope this helps you tennispro.

    Thanks for your insight Doug. I've heard some mixed reviews about the guy. He's been canvassing Burlngton and Hamilton area for weeks now, really wants in. Really wants to make changes. Just don't know what changes he wants to make. I don't think he knows what changes to make or where to start.

    If you run into Jay Hakim ask him the tough questions, what are his plans for refracting for opticians, why is he and the college set on making opticians delegate and lose their jobs! Ask me Who paid for his $300/day security guard at the college and if it was the college that paid ask him for a refund check!!

    If I were elected I would stop all delegation everywhere, allow opticians to refract, and stop internet dispensing.

    Furthermore, I would stop all optometrists from refracting and dispensing and I would force them to dust frames at Walmart.

    The bigger question is Why did he bring a guard. He is a flake, I have heard that he abstains from most votes; I do not think that he does his homework.
