Caputo trying to talk out of both sides of her mouth at the same time.This is why she has no business on Council and she has to go on election day!

It’s comical how these councillors and the mayor are trying to show the people of the Sault that they care. It is insulting to the voters who have watched this city decline over the last term. It’s definitely time for a change starting with the mayor.If you want to get people’s attention then fix the roads , just imagine the state of the roads after another four years , the cost to taxpayers will be immense along with the new dump that is being filled up free from the botched hospital deal. This group is setting the city up for financial ruin while promoting their own interests.

All this is just more political grandstanding than actually addressing the issue residents are concerned about.Caputo herself voted to approve the sale to the developer in December. If there were concerns about data centres, those questions should have been raised before approving the sale.You can’t vote to sell the land and then, once public opposition grows, introduce a motion that conveniently allows you to say you’re “doing something” while acknowledging it won't actually change the project people are protesting.Creating a ban on future projects doesn't solve the concerns surrounding the one sitting in front of us today, this is just grand standing right before the election.

How about " just eat real food " !

Green Hornet, that comment is only coming from a place of ignorance. If eating real food worked and exersized, people wouldn't be in the situation they're in. Not everyone who is overweight is a couch potato. Some people who have children and gain weight can never lose it because of hormone fluctuations. Eating properly, going to the gym, swimming doesn't work.

She has a decent point. It has already been approved and I'm sure contracts made. You guys always whine when money has to get spent, how much do you think the court battle will cost the city?

This proposal should have been made BEFORE the city agreed to sell the land for a Data Centre! A genuine case of too little too late and gross incompetence. Nice to be considering the future when you ruined the present. Thank goodness there's an election.

It's wild that with the election coming up, councillors are actually starting to bring motions forward that people actually care about. What's next?

The silent killer - people on it look terrible and can only imagine what health effects in the years ahead

And it shouldn't be covered for people with for weight loss it is always been meant for someone who has diabetes

Gotta love it when the politician forgets their place. This reads to me like a "shut it and pay your taxes, peasants" Remember dear candidates and current council, you are nothing but our representation. Not our boss.

Gardi wants to be re-elected. Suddenly this sidewalk is a safety issue. Why wasn’t it raised over the past 3 years?Need to shake up this council and elect a new Mayor.

It is used more for weight loss than it is for diabetics. The money maker is in the people that buy it for weight loss.

They cannot fool us, eh? Most of them should be gone in the election, as most wards have very good choices for NEW council members. The key is to get out and vote. The Sault usually has a very low turnout, so let's make that effort to get out this time and vote.

It is not "bad for your health" when compared with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes, period. GLP-1 medications not only are effective in treating those conditions, but research is showing they may also prevent dementia, treat several neurological condition, prevent age-related vision loss, and a host of other benefits.Just like every medication, however, there are side effects. Is chemotherapy "bad for your health?" Well, it is if you don't have cancer! It is always a risk-vs-reward with medicine, and in this case the rewards are typically more than worth the potential risks.

Calories in < calories out. Move a little too. Not rocket science. Quit medicating your behaviours and take responsibility for yourself.
