City digging out after massive dumping of snow
127The streets are still not plowed a week and a half later. Snowbanks still aren't cut, you cannot see anything pulling out of driveways or side streets. It's time to abandon these useless projects like putting a pool downtown that no one will use and put that money back into snow removal in the winter and road repair in the summer! Make the city functional and working before wasting money on these pipe dream projects!!

107The fact is, the quality and timeliness of snow removal in the Sault has gone downhill drastically.

39Time to put away the boomer mentality and get with the times. Hybrid work arrangements are proven to be better for both the employee and employer.

95Just raise our taxes 10 percent. We need more frivolous spending, maybe a swimming pool in the River or some more crazy road designs like the top of St. George’s hill. Anyone drive that gong show road in the last few days? I don’t think the plows can even fit through it anymore. Maybe we have some more buildings we can buy to knock down for turning lanes. We are so ahead of the times here in the Sault. Let raise taxes and build some statues of former mayors.

83This was implemented as an emergency response to covid. The risk has been gone for a long time. Everyone should be back into the workplace.

67it's about time! I had to deal with service Ontario in the south, and found that 50% of those i spoke with were absolutely useless. Drag them back into an office where their lack of work ethic can come under scrutiny. Not helpful in any way. Totally different than the face to face interactions here in the Sault which have always been great.

87How many of these crimes are a result of the failed immigration policy. There needs to be a law that if you commit crimes in this country and you are not a citizen, you get sent back.

33Just because some people can't do remote work, EG, they directly serve the public, doesn't mean we should punish everyone by forcing them back to work in crowded conditions with lots of distractions. The people I know who work remotely are far more productive at home because they're not constantly being interrupted and aren't squished into a tiny space with several/many other people. It's obnoxious to force people back to work then obligate them to sit through zoom meetings in an uncomfortable, tiny cubicle. Remote work gives parents more flexibility. My spouse & I both worked & it was hard for our kids when they had to go to daycare then school then back to daycare. Getting rid of even one transition vastly improves quality of life for young families. And no, it doesn't mean that workers will be less productive or working a shorter day. If there's a performance problem, the person will be a problem regardless. Address the performance issues and give employees more flexibility.

62Thats the most hilarious thing I have heard all day. At least Terry has comedy going for him, he is going to need a fallback when Sault Ste Marie finally wakes up and sends him packing.

35Is that the only reason you have that employers should not be allowing hybrid work arrangements? Did you know for most of us, 96% of our work is done digitally, regardless of being in office or wfh. Did you also know that most government workers are not forward facing.

56They are/were paid to go to work at a specific location when hired..... so do so! The pandemic is long past. If employees find this now an issue to attend their assigned work station, then time to find another employer who will accommodate working at home.

69Please stop plowing the main streets 10+ times a day and start working on the side streets. Also, most streets need their banks cut down. I have a truck and can barely see exiting my driveway.
