  • Will Sutton: I don't care where Mayor Cantrell goes, as long as she brings home the bacon

    3 days ago | theadvocate.com | Will Sutton

    I've been to Canada. More than once. I wasn't there long whenever I went. Once I left Detroit to cross the border, see what I could see within a mile or less then return. I just wanted to step into another neighborly nation to add to my short list of nations I've visited. I've never been to Ottawa, Canada. New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell has. The mayor has been to plenty of places I haven't been. So have Mayors Ray Nagin, Marc Morial, Sidney Barthelemy, Moon Landrieu and Mitch Landrieu.

  • Will Sutton: Louisianans deserve dependable energy sources. We need outage answers, and a plan.

  • Will Sutton: New Orleans jailbreak features no stars, only shattered lives and torn communities

    1 week ago | ourcommunitynow.com | Will Sutton

    Share I am not that Willie Sutton . Even though I (sort of) share a name with the infamous bank robber, I've never been arrested. I visited jails and prisons. By choice. I've never spent a night in one. So I had no opportunity to escape. And I'm not sure I would've been any good at devising and carrying out an escape plan. I've gotten my share of parking and speeding tickets. I've been stopped for traffic violations.
