Orillia man left without access to $25,000 after ATM issue
37That's just pure lack of accountability. I can't believe how lax all of our service providers and service institutions, be it banks, retail, utility, telecommunications, insurance etc have become, No one takes responsibility for anyrhing. Is there no pride in the services preformed!! Always someone else's fault. Its pathetic that the consumers who are the reason these service providers make a living are treated so poorly and dismissed so easily. Everyone is just a $ figure to them!. Truly pathetic how we've regressed.

Retailers call for more foot traffic as Fairweather exits Orillia Square mall
36They really made mistakes closing off the mall access from the anchor stores. If I go to Canadian Tire, I don't go outside to reenter the mall. Similarly with No Frills. I used to go through the mall before entering the larger stores. IMHO this closure killed the mall.

23Ontario's More Homes Built Faster Act, 2022 was to build more affordable housing. An $880, 000 home is now only $840,000, yay!

High snow banks spark debate over winter road safety in Orillia
24Orillia is one of the worst cities for snow plowing/removal. And council is all talk and no action. This question comes up every winter and nothing changes.

16GREED! Greed by the city, the developer, the builders and anyone else who will make money off of this project. They've not a single care in the world for affordability or quality of life for the souls who will live in these homes. The builders' glossy brochures are not a reflection of the reality. "CAR-O-RAMA" with no places to park. Unregulated rentals. Drug dens. Transient population who do not care about the neighbourhood. They operate with the confidence in knowing the police are short-handed, and I'm just talking about the university students. Have we learned nothing?

17The people living on roads that are considered Class 3 and below pay the same tax rate as everyone else but get far less service. Either give me a break on my tax rate or give me the same level of service everyone else gets.

21Orillia has to start clearing the entire snowbank instead of just half. Doing half the job still makes it dangerous.

On top of all that snow, plow drivers facing 'abusive behaviour'
21I don't know why anybody would be blaming the plow drivers. They don't set the policy on how roads are plowed. They don't decide on how often to go out or where they're assigned to go. And almost always doing an excellent job.

16Great! Another sprawling sub division of code-minium housing on open space! Just what Orillia needs. What happened to gentle increased density within the city east of Hwy 11? More sprawl, more infrastucture and maintenance costs for taxpayers! Sheeesh!

13Epicentre near Brechin? Hey, would all that limestone blasting and removal have an effect on the geological stability of the area??? Nah, surely not.

14Parking remains an issue as does the increased traffic on University, Hwy 12 and Bass Lake Side Road. The housing is not "affordable" except to the developer and their minions. It is affordable housing we need not more mcMansions. What's in the works to address THAT problem?

14I am a renter. I am not a homeowner being like 'no more homes now I have mine'. But who is this type of housing for? These rushed subdivisions have no longevity, they are car-dependent communities yet a lack of parking and places to put cars. They are socially isolating, not great environmentally, not really affordable.... They are hard to age in (as they are often built narrow with lots of stairs), they are hard to be a starter home at the price point.. so who are they for? Is this what the city residents want? Is this what the mayor wants to help meet the housing numbers Ford is aiming at? does it get us in the "good books"? Its confusing for me. Im curious more so how this is decided on, and is it like the TEMU version of a home. Build it cheap and quick and not your future problem when the seams come undone? What happens to these sprawls when demand drops. They are not desirable.... This really feels like building it to do someone else a favor, not the citizens here.

13@ Kerrin HarleysAngelsMom...Well said.But lets add that our oh so glorious Government lies to our faces.Recently we are told to buy Canadian,shop Canadian,support local.I call rubbish as our communication service providers are purchased from AT&T which is American.And when we have a tech problem and we call our "Canadian" service provider we speak with people in South East Asia.They sold us out folks and the vast majority is blind to that fact.As for banks they just wanna keep our money.My husband and I had an account that the bank closed and took our money.Reason being was,we weren't making transactions on the account but deposits.They took our money and closed the account.Do you know how hard it is to fight with your bank when you are speaking with someone from Africa,India,New Zealand,Philippines,ect,ect.......We are doomed
