Ok, these guys have nothing better to do than a ribbon cutting ceremony at a Wendy's? Thanks for making the trip in Keil Giddens.I can’t even believe they had a ceremony…. Who even cares? Tough times and everyone is struggling…. Except for fast food franchises apparently. These places are on the cusp of automating increasing peoples risk of heart disease and eliminating unsightly minimum wage jobs. It’s a golden age for fast food I guess.
This is disgusting. I do not understand why people think it is other people's responsibility to deal with their garbage. Have some responsibility for yourself.
What has changed in downtown safety since Yu has been elected or this council ? I'm not sure of any meaningful changes besides "pig on a lipstick " type changes, and never ending spending on wants. What tax breaks have taken place ? Are city taxes are always going up to what seems like incompetence in balancing budgets. I drove past the aquatic center today at 10am, no vehicles no work being done. Sure seems like poor project management, seems like an audit on efficiency of our city hall staff shoud be done.
The downtown clean teams do an amazing job.Unfortunately, street people drop piles of litter without a thought all through the downtown core.I couldn't imagine what it would look like without the clean teams.This is probably the most effective downtown initiative.
Sadly, the "generosity" of some people is severely lacking in this town, and elsewhere. A good rule would be that if you wouldn't buy it, wear it, eat it or use it, it's garbage and needs to be taken to the dump.It's so disrespectful and disheartening to the charity and volunteers for you to drop your discards off without a reasonable expectation of improving their cause.I wish the Prince George Humane Society great success with this new fundraising adventure, I plan to both donate and shop there in the near future.
The second fire was at Alward Place, a BC Housing/Northern Health place where everyone was evacuated in the middle of the night without the aid of the elevators. Seniors, some in their 90's, had to assemble outside for about an hour. Something needs to be done.
“ Yu said the low participation could mean that the survey results don’t accurately reflect the impact crime has on local businesses.” Yeah, it’s just a mystery… 🤦♂️ The businesses downtown are fed up with more useless talk from the politicians, who have no intention of doing anything close to what it takes to bring safety back to our communities…
BC Housing should run Abstinence only facilities, Peter you are on the Ball , this is what should be happening , people need a chance to get off DRUGS and places to go to get off DRUGS. In Prince George we have a large government owned old Motel used to be called the North Star Inn, all kinds of stuff has happen there, It needs to be turned into a drug rehab, NO DRUGS Allowed, how can you get off DRUGS if the people around you are doing Drugs?? Also there is a School a block away.
What a shocker. Our mayor fails to disappoint yet again. Shutting this down due to its proximity to an election just reeks of "I don't want another one of my fails to be top of voters mind." "Yu can do it" actually became "Yu got nothing done"......except for blowing through his expense budgets. Imagine not wanting public safety to become politicized.....what an abysmal failure he has been.
Fast food good for the odd treat. That’s it. If one consumes fast, junk, ultra-processed food regularly, well, don’t complain about our medical system. Don’t know the numbers, but it’s rather obvious that people’s poor diet costs the public health system more dollars than the illegal drugs that the uptight right often rail on about.
