'People are just scared': Timmins travel agent sees drop in U.S. bookings
34The only reason for this “fear” is because the Canadian media and politicians are pushing fear mongering. I’ve gone over so many times, nothing has changed, they don’t go through your phone, they ask the normal questions they always do, same as anyone you talk to that goes over and comes back it’s all the same. People need to learn to think for themselves and not like the CBC or CTV tell them how to think or feel.

Concerns raised after traffic signals at Goulais and Wallace went dark
52First the city reduces the road from 3 lanes to 2 and then removes the traffic lights to relieve congestion at that intersection. Can anyone from city hall actually see how stupid this is or is it just me? Stop hiring consultants that have never spent any real time here.

51Are we ready for an election soon . What are our city councilors thinking ? People here can't even abide by stop yield or traffic lights and you want to remove lights

Two-vehicle collision happened at Wallace Terrace and Goulais Ave. today
56This is just insane. I drive that rd every day. It's far too busy to remove the lights. Kids going to school in the morning and home in the afternoon someone's going to get hurt. Put the lights back.

20What is he doing that is so bad? Making deals for the USA? Putting his Country 1st? Removing criminals that shouldn’t be in there in the 1st place? Putting a stop to useless spending? Our banker/economist expert can’t even come up with a budget, so what’s so bad that donnie is doing?

50Well isn’t this a surprise. Hope everyone is okay and this completely ridiculous idiotic study doesn’t end someone’s life. Too dangerous and unbelievably stupid idea to remove these lights.

38There always a concern when they do these trials as people in this city are too routine, and do not actually pay attention to their driving. This city has WAY too many traffic lights compared to other cities of this size. I applaud them for trying to reduce the excessive traffic delays... now we just have to get drivers to pay attention to the signals/signage and then it will be just fine... These accidents are not caused by removing traffic lights, they are caused by people who should not be behind the wheel.

24exactly. people, especially those that watch CBC or CTV, get scared to travel into the US because the mainstream media tells them BS stories to frighten the, I've been across many times and the Amercians are nothing but friendly. stop believeing what they tell you on TV and just go enjoy the US. Many aren't going just beacuse the exchange rate for canadians sucks atm. plain and simple.

Lame-duck Downtown Association promises 'collaborative' breakup with city
42I’ve a subscription to newspapers..com and went back into old Sault star articles and it’s unbelievable how much the downtown association has held back progress in this city. For one thing, Walmart and Home Depot were made to reduce their sizes and couldn’t have access between their parking lots at one time because the city council let them have their way. And why do city buses all have to congregate downtown like they did when everything was on Queen St.? How much time and fuel is wasted while passengers, taken off the route and wasting their time sit waiting? I’m a history buff and love the historic downtown areas of cities and maybe if the rent is manageable, small businesses suitable for that location will start moving in .

'It's distasteful': Photos of Toronto Sun 'Sunshine Girls' are being rerun again and again
38The women are/were clothed and were consenting adults. They got paid (financial compensation) for the photo shoot, and for some, this added to their professional portfolio to launch their careers. They signed a contract that gives the paper copyright to the pictures in perpetuity. Once again, the woke are crying foul. With all the bigger issues in the world today, this is what the media chooses to focus on.

36It's perfectly safe. Until it's not. There's no way to know if or when you will draw the short straw. That's the problem.

38Shocker! Who would've thought there would be accidents? First they turn a 4 lane road to a 2 lane road, which makes everyone speed to get to the intersection first, then take out the lights when people are blocking the road trying to turn left onto Goulais ave, slowing all traffic and causing people to take chances! This is a BIG mistake! A "study" is such a poor choice of words!

41Guaranteed on the first Monday morning these lights are out of service, there will be an accident. Then likely again during the next maintenance outage at Algoma Steel … So what is this traffic study? See how many vehicles get wadded up in the next 3-4 months? Anyone that gets t-boned should be merited to sue the city. The only person who’s listening is a councillor that drives through the intersection.

37The Soo couldn't handle the city taking the lights out at Elgin/Albert. What makes the planners think the Soo can handle that intersection? Especially very early in the morning. Plus, there's a new bar that just opened there. There's gonna be extra traffic in the area.
