Why did the Agawa Canyon Tour Train suddenly abandon the Canal District?
70We're not a tourist town simple as that. There's nothing here. Bush plane roof is leaking . They need 5 million. Its hilarious people think we're a tourist town.

Algoma Steel partners with armoured vehicle manufacturer
21Algoma is American-owned; they do not care about the company that sold vehicles to ICE, and I doubt anyone that works there cares either.

54These players and families pay thousands of dollars a year to play. A huge part of that cost is ice time, which includes helping to pay for operating costs of arena attendants. Occasionally, they may have to clean a bigger mess…that’s the job. Fine the team, make them clean it the next day, but for a team to lose a championship like this is beyond pathetic.

70This matter should have been discussed with the team and an opportunity given to make things right before taking such drastic action. It's just not right and the NOHA should be held accountable.

30As much as I agree that the new location is not ideal, I have to admit that I avoid the downtown core as much as possible. Too much crime and a general feeling of being unsafe. Until the homelessness and addiction crises in this city are improved, the downtown area will not be appealing.

61RIDICULOUS that this could not be worked out.

64People living downtown don't have many options. I think it's only City Meat Market and the Dollar store in the mall. I hope this gentleman is able to overcome the hurdles and provide a much needed service for that area. Fruit? Veggies?

Agawa Canyon Railroad has new station with on-site parking
62From a brand new building to an old rail storage yard with a dirt parking lot. Something seems off

59So let me get this straight, Porco builds a beautiful station with various other amenities, at the entrance to the international bridge, close to hotels and they move to a gravel train yard in front of Algoma Steel?? WOW!

62Something seems off about this!! The ACR train yard with a ticket office versus the train station specifically built for this purpose!

58This story reports that the new train station was a joint venture between the EDC and Tony Porco.Was Watco also part of the negotiation for a new station? Were long term lease agreements not part of the government funding agreement?Since it's been five years, are the parties merely quibbling over lease renewal terms?These questions need to be answered since the Agawa Tour Train is the Sault's biggest tourist draw. I can't imagine a "good" customer experience in a railway maintenance yard. Something smells and needs executive attention to rectify.

40Accountability. You are supposed represent yourselves (and your city) in a way that shows pride and respect for both yourself and the place in which you are visiting. There is no excuse for poor behaviour and sometimes the only way to learn the lesson is to pay the price of your actions. Sad on so many levels. Do better.

58Something smells fishy here. You would not move out of a great site and end up in a rail yard unless there is a hidden background story here.

Why did the Agawa Canyon Tour Train suddenly abandon the Canal District?
45Unless tourists come to see our mine field crater trails and subsequent patch work quilt that are supposed to be roads? Or the sheer amount of run down buildings, boarded up buildings, empty retail space everywhere, unkempt properties (privately owned and city owned) uncut and full of weeds and garbage in the summer season. Or the unusual folks that congregate on Queen Street, and the big Welcome that locked shop doors on Queen Street sends out. Yep, not on the top of too many folks list as a place to visit.
