Why is Michelle Winters jeopardizing GTHA?

Later in the Team Mayer commercial where they lied about the 11% property value increase (or were they talking about property taxes), Michelle Winters is seen posing with a group of children at the GTHA rink in GTHA uniforms.

Didn't she and the rest of Team Mayer get the memo that sports teams supporting candidates is against IRS regulations and against the rules of many national, chartering organizations?  Why would she risk the financial future of the GTHA by linking them to her candidacy and to Team Mayer? 

I am sorry Mrs. Winters but our sports teams should be about the children, not about you or Dave Mayer or using them as a way to get their parents votes.  That clip of you surrounding yourself does nothing to stop the rumors that the only reason they chose you for Michelle Genteks term was because Dave Mayer thought you brought the "Hockey Dad" vote.

Please Mrs. Winters for the sake of our children please stop using your affiliation with GTHA and BKLL for Team Mayer's political gain.
