Sunshine list shows ballooning salaries in the education sector
22
Most of this increase was due to a retro payment because the Ford government stifled salaries - it’s certainly not because teacher-salaries are ‘ballooning’. Your title is very misleading.

Dear GovernmentsOnce all the carts are safe and sound (I was worried!!)...could we put some effort into price fixing and gouging, by the big grocery chains?

Yes…why should a City stop flying a flag of a country whose stated goal is to economically bring us to our knees and destroy our way of life? Why wouldn’t we just invite their Dear Leader here to join us in the celebration? Why indeed, wake up and get your collective head out of the sand North Bay City Council.

Get used to that number going up 4-7 percentiles once that new arena is built. The first surprise has already sprung: a $2 million dollar entrance....North Bay is in for it.A new rule should be passed based on the lying council portrayed against Bayites about the real amount of money that was spent on Memorial Gardens. Lie about costs=jail time. This is the only way the real numbers will be shared. We already have a liar in the current Mayor who ran and won based upon his campaign against the arena. Once in, he changed his tune fast and was suddenly for the new arena. Pathetic lie.I doubt the liberal moderator will of this site will post my comment.

The oil companies will give us a few weeks to bask in this...then they will bring prices back up to what they were in March; and pocket the extra profit. They will offer up the usual excuses, but make no mistake, they have no intention of letting consumers have this money.

It would be more accurate if the list were limited to the annual income. Including several years of retroactive settlements with the Ontario government (court rulings) paints an inaccurate picture

Wondering why my comment was deleted…Your headline is very misleading. The increase in salaries was due to a retro payment - let’s be clear. And, the reason for the retro payment was because the Ford government stifled any increase in salary which was unlawful.

"It is unacceptable for someone to steal the wagon from your backyard to transport their belongings, so we cannot accept the theft of a $350 piece of property from our local businesses" But residents are forced to accept the theft of their belongings on a daily basis! Rarely is anyone charged with theft despite being in possessions that are clearly stolen.

Teachers get paid quite well. Yet every 4 years the sky is falling and it's all "for the kids," which nobody is buying.

And as usual, no names published so there’s one less reason for them to NOT to do it again.

Irresponsible reporting and editor work here. Costs are not balloning its because of 4 years of retroactive payments that were illegally withheld. Perhaps a little deeper journalistic work would be helpful. Stop being part of the "fake news" problem.

Sure....we will just ask everyone else to bear the brunt of the economic war with the US, we will never let go of the dollar just to stay Canadian... Council's collective head may be stuck somewhere, but I dont think it is necessarily in the sand.

Not true...elections have consequences...he said what he was going to do well in advance of the last election. Why would we show any respect to a country that shows none to us. Take the flags down!!

FOR ONCE!!!! The city council is making a sensible decision!! This is a city wide celebration honoring both our countries air forces. Always has been ...always should be...never mind politics! The US citizens who work here to help protect our great nation need not to be caught up in the political mess...its not their fight...they buy their groceries, fuel their vehicles, use our libraries, go to our medical providers..all this like the rest of us. So let's all celebrate the day together and set any and Ann differences aside and have fun.
