OPINION: McArthur's appeal ignores the community he wants to serve
34I think that at this point he's dragging his feet to get his pension . The community won't trust him again. The GPS needs the community to trust them and they will lose a lot of that trust if we look up and see this guy in a uniform.

32What a disgrace...and getting paid handsomely, as well. For this to take so long to resolve is rather disgusting. This man doesn't deserve to wear a uniform.

15It would be hard to where this shirt. Living here my entire life and having a good memory the negatives outway the positives. As a kid this was a great place to be a kid. Today, this city being driven by people with personal adjendas having control it is hard to get excited.I have said for years that this city has never reached its potential. Oh, so true.

19What's with all the negative comments????Guelph is not perfect.....nowhere is.....similar problems everywhere. Noone is forced to stay here.It's totally optional to buy a shirt. Cute idea. Made me smile. Best of luck with the shirts.....hope it helps some downtown businesses.....far better than just complaining.

21Keep up the good work Adam there is nobody else willing to do the reporting you do .It's incredibly important that those unwilling to visit the inner chambers get to know what's happening

14Well here’s the opportunity for these concerned citizens to put their money where their mouth is and purchase these lands themselves.

19I only expect situations like this to get worse as the new “Conservation” districts come into effect. Ford was always banging on about the “war on the car” and so now by way of retribution has declared war on nature.

21He has had his day in court, and then again on appeal. Due process has been served. Why does he get another shot at this? If this “officer”, who disgraced himself and disgraced the police service by causing real harm, is still receiving any compensation, he should be assigned supervised community service until he finally accepts the inevitable. As for a pension? It should not be awarded.

19What a travesty, the GRCA are lost......using public money to aquire this and then having it taken and parcelled out by the GRCA and sold.....? Shameful. Doesn't the "C" stand for conservation?

3The city should buy the eight hectare parcel and use the west side of it, adjacent to Pioneer Rd, it as a temporary managed site for camping for the unhoused. I note that there is already an established three season trailer park further up Pioneer Rd.

9The I ♡ Guelph campaign is just sad. No, blind positivity isn't better than complaining. I've grew up through and into hearing it was lame, worthwhile downtowns don't need a sign in the air every 5 meters telling you that it is good.The entire concept of the design is to ingrain the thought, it doesn't come from celebration. They realized how little pride they've managed for themselves. Do you see the price and quality of the shirt in the picture? You're just going to eat that up and imagine it's standing for real pride towards something?

13Michael Szeller: This is such a tired canned response. As Matt points out, this is public land that was already purchased with public dollars. City of Guelph taxes made up 30% of the purchase price. Another 60% came from the Ministry of Natural Resources (your Provincial tax dollars) and the remaining 10% came from the GRCA (from the annual levies you pay through your municipal taxes.) Past civic leaders fought for the GRCA to get this land so it could be protected from development under their stewardship. This sale is such a betrayal of that trust.Ms. Lawson's statements are also false. I did an FOI to the GRCA for the grant letter from the Ministry of Natural Resources for the purchase of the Kortright Waterfowl Park. It explicitly said that the money was being given for the Hanlon Creek Conservation Area.
