It's only 9% of the population in the city who speak French as their first language, so in my opinion, it shouldn't have been a priority. Just saying. This isn't Quebec. I know I'm going to get a lot of thumbs down but I don't care. I'm entitled to my opinion.

Or MAYBE let's make people take responsibility for their own actions. McDonalds ads don't make people obese, beer ads don't make people alcoholics, and gambling ads don't make people addicts.

Amen, and guys like Wayne Gretzky should give all the money they made doing commercials for gambling to Gamblers Anonymous!!!!

Gambling ads don't make you gamble, they are all personal choices to either partake or not in gambling. Just like beer ads don't make you drink alcohol. Its funny the ad that popped up on this survey was sponsored by OLG. Who by they way pay taxes locally, employ hundreds locally and return the proceeds back to the communities. Including sports developments programs.

Privatization never leads to better services. Look at our highways for an example.

So a possible thing that could bring money into the city, jobs and save money on taxes and the city turns it down.Of course because it doesn't affect some of these councillors. This whole group needs to go

Yes, it’s crazy when steaks from Australia are cheaper than Canadian beef. Why is the Liberal government making it so expensive for Canadian farmers on fuel & fertilizer costs?

How can you say there's no danger to public safety if you haven't identified the source of the smell?

Gambling can be addictive, like alcohol, tobacco and narcotics (legal and illegal.) Of course advertising should be banned.

These guys are clueless. Lots of opportunities? Certainly not one's equivalent wages and benefits. The industrial market in the Soo is small, and with a glut of 1,000 people (not to mention other companies laying off due to a decrease in ASI business) injected into this market, there are only so many skilled jobs. Not everyone wants or can retrain to be something entirely different. Not everyone wants to work in the mines hours away from the Soo and be separated from their family and community for weeks at a time. We need more, not fewer, manufacturing and heavy industry jobs here, not less. Tourism and green jobs do not anchor a large community - industry does.

If gambling ads don't encourage you to gamble, why do they exist ?

Jobs are dwindling shouldn’t we keep them for Canadians?

Once again the Greedy Train has risen, reduce the size of the product, reduce the weight the product then you put a red maple 🍁 leaf on it raise the price then sell it to Consumers because they think they’re helping the country.

Last of my siblings left in the country. All found better work, housing for a fraction and no wait times for a doctor.

That is not enough. It should go up by more than that, to be honest, so it’ll make people not want to break the law..
