National labour boss lambastes bonuses for Algoma Steel executives

I'm not against executives being paid well when a company succeeds. I'm against rewarding failure.When a company loses hundreds of millions, lays off workers, and benefits from public support, executive bonuses send the wrong message. Workers shouldn't bear all the sacrifice while management remains protected.A simple solution: no executive bonuses while major layoffs are happening or while taxpayer-funded assistance is being received. Accountability should apply to everyone, from the shop floor to the boardroom.

What delays? It’s a “bridge too far” for me. I’m uninterested in whatever exists on it’s southern side. I’m committed to support the economy on the True North Strong And Free side.

Sad state of affairs when lay offs are happening and executives are reaping the benefits of a floundering corporation. It goes to show hard work by blue collar employees is not appreciated but is used as a stepping stone for execs to fill there pockets with cash. Will greed ever cease to exist?

Sault Area Hospital ends year with $9.4M deficit

There are a few things going on. The province is not adequately funding public hospitals. Every hospital in Ontario is in serious financial trouble. Funding has not kept up with inflation. Yet Ford has not spent billions in federal healthcare dollars. Second, the province is building private surgical facilities rather than adequately funding public hospitals. Every dollar spent on a private surgical facility could be spent in improving capacity at public hospitals.Third, our population is aging so we have more medically complex patients. So more procedures and more time in hospital. And that means higher costs.Fourth, the province has not invested in enough nursing home beds so dozens of nursing home patients are stuck in the hospital when they could be receiving care elsewhere. That's expensive.Ford's priority is trashing the Toronto waterfront and generating $$$$ infrastructure projects that serve his ego and his developer buddies and very few others.

I wouldn't say they're incompetent but I would say greedy. Their bonuses should have be doled out to the guys recently laid off.

Let's be real, loading passengers from a gravel lot beside the train yard would not have made for "a smooth and enjoyable experience for all passengers"
