SooToday 4So you will turn down temporary (by definition) construction jobs and 25 to 50 good permanent jobs in this city because they may relocate and come from out of town. Sounds win win to me.

OrilliaMatters 9Whitney,, please just go back to your actual job as a Private Investigator over the residents of this town and stay out of what we need for us. Using your recent family tragedy was not even the worst you’ve done for your “campaign”.. just go back to the job you already had that makes you feel powerful and leave our city alone.

SooToday 11You might not be interested in getting the city involved in legal issues but you’re playing both sides of the fence off each other and will most likely lead a charge that will make that company feel unwelcome here and might just have a legal issue anyways. Remember. Feelings are important things or something like that. You had your chance and you failed. Don’t pretend to care now. You are a failure.

OrilliaMatters 7Let’s also not forget she doesn’t even live in Orillia. Rules are rules and since she has a small business here, she can run. But are seriously considering electing a mayor who doesn’t even live within the boundaries of the city? You would think this would be important to the people who support her.

OrilliaMatters 5@Casual - watch the last meeting and pay attention or read the transcript. Lakehead did accurately interpret the agreement. It was the CAO and the Mayor who have misled everyone. The clause the CAO and Mayor were leaning on doesn’t activate for years to come. The Mayor and the CAO were accusing OSMH and Lakehead of misinterpreting the agreement while trying to implement the clause on excess land that doesn’t come into play until the year 2059. Google it.

OrilliaMatters 5A few comments are deleted… interesting.I know I didn’t delete mine.. 🧐As I said, maybe someone who owns a Private Citizen Investigation company should stick to her work and not get into politics as that MAY cause a biased opinion from residents of our city.Just a thought for anyone who votes for that little pink heart 🩷 I screenshotted this one. 😎

SooToday 4I honestly don't think about flip flopping, nor think about this waning or winning votes for peaks sakes. This is about AI period! How much good in the long term is AI and what it needs to POWER it, there's so much waste in creating it in environmental impacts and services needed for it and pushing the needs for it to happen! There's incessive noise and and and, think this through but unfortunately the mass appears to win this out and why for the life of me I don't know. Think about AI for a few moments and realize what it entails after reading and watching some online propaganda and realizations of residents where they built them now. Watch how the underlying world is basically out of control from the control as to whom is pushing the centers to build them. What happened to having internet access the way we had it? Put the young to work doing meaningful work creating and building progress...NOT digitally that produces a busy sense of nothing in the end of the day.

OrilliaMatters 3The city is not working against OSMH. The city is obligated to perform due diligence on behalf of the taxpayers of Orillia regarding the covenant on the land. Something stinks in the way Lakehead is dealing with this deal because it is either their incompetence in understanding the requirements of the covenant or manipulation.I don't see anyone asking how much our taxes will be going up. The City of Brampton website has this to say.While healthcare is a provincial responsibility, Ontario has a longstanding policy requiring local communities to fund a substantial "local share" (typically 25% to 30% of total project costs, including 10% of construction and 100% of furniture and equipment). When hospital foundations and donations cannot cover the entire municipal commitment, local councils often resort to a dedicated special hospital tax levy or incremental property tax increases to pay off the city's pledge.
