Reversing course on latest shelter village site now 'will likely kill the project,' councillor says
TBNewsWatch
81I believe addional accommodation can be found without building a homeless village. I also don't think the city should make Thunder Bay a destination for the out of town homeless. Obviosy the city has a big drug problem and treatment is crucial for those seeking help. The money the city will save by not building and operating a homeless village can be put to better use.

65Since the NDP became a Liberal version 2.0, who needs them. They supported Trudeau when the country despised him.

Poppies get dropped from Kinach’s Remembrance Day crosswalk idea
SooToday 53That pride cross walk is the biggest waste of money. Literally every time its done it ends up covered in tire marks within a couple days.

TBNewsWatch 71How about we call an early election and let the people decide what's best, which would be no village at all.

OPINION: This Labour Day remember how unions raise the bar for all Canadians
SooToday 23When unions work out higher wages the price of everything goings up for everyone including non union workers. Everyone else pays for union increases in pay.

Poppies get dropped from Kinach’s Remembrance Day crosswalk idea
SooToday 63Kudos to Councillor Kinach for attempting to bring attention to our veterans in the Soo. Although the poppy is frowned upon by some Legion members for being walked upon I believe Mr Kinach has good intentions and I’d like to hear more. Many cities in Canada have already put poppies on crosswalks temporarily around Remembrance Day. With so much money being spent numerous times on pride colours, etc. I think we can all agree that more attention belongs on our veterans.

OPINION: This Labour Day remember how unions raise the bar for all Canadians
SooToday 56Absolutely pathetic blaming union workers instead of greedy corporations and CEOs who are getting skyrocketing salaries and bonuses. Galen Weston of Loblaws makes $11 million a year and is worth $18 billion. He couldn't spend all that money in 10 lifetimes. But yeah, keep blaming ordinary workers.

47Jagmeet Singh gifted the NDP to the Liberal Party of Canada. No room for two hard Left Parties so one has to go! No need to split the Left vote!

TBNewsWatch 59Support existing faciities . Some agencies with financial support may be able to retrofit existing buildings and accommodate more residents. Look for alternate solutions. Concentrate on treatment. Homeless villages will likely cause more problems than they will ever solve.

THE PAIKIN PODCAST: Does Canada need the NDP anymore?
17Everybody keeps complaining about the Liberals & the Conservatives & it does not matter which one is voted in so we NEED to keep the NDP & vote them in as they will do much better for the Canadian people as they have in the past.
