Orange ‘Every Child Matters’ shirts banned from Queen’s Park legislature
48I see nothing wrong with that T-shirt. It is not a political statement in any way.

Shoemaker hearing from residents about yesterday’s smell
63How can you say there's no danger to public safety if you haven't identified the source of the smell?

City paid small per cent of pothole claims over the last five years
61"Damage claims can be filed when it’s believed negligent maintenance of municipal roads, sewers, or facilities has caused injury or damage to property." Does this not describe fhe condition of almost every road in the Soo, regardless of the season? The roads here have been neglected for so long it would be impossible for the city to catch up on it. Property taxes are among some of the highest in Ontario and yet nothing to show for it.

Contracts awarded for rebuilding Peoples Road, East Street
46"Councillors authorized the road closure of Peoples Road from Penno Road to Third Line, including intersections, from May 1 to Nov. 27." - in what world does this make sense? That is a SEVEN MONTH closure short of a few days. Why do construction jobs take this long? They never used to - and they still don't take this long in other cities. Only in SSM!

46A independent adjuster, ha, what do they cost?How about an independent pot hole filler? Ellwood-Robison makes the best asphalt around , contract their crew to have it done properly and timely.Look at the shape of our main arteries. Misdirected funds would cover the cost. This city is an embarrassment for the taxes paid.

26If Queen's Park has a policy that bans all political statements inside the legislature, that policy should be respected and enforced.Rules are rules and they need to be followed; otherwise chaos will ensue.

20Sunshine list is bogus anyway. $100,000 isn’t much these days. Adjusted for inflation it should be above $180,000.

40The car and phone allowances need to go, pay your own vehicle expenses like every other person has to. And a lot of the travel expenses can be cut with online training.

38Take a look at the sunshine list. Wonder why the roads aren't fixed ( they also use models based on cities like Toronto to justify how they plan and fix the roads). Your taxes pay for someone's lavish lifestyle. Public servants used to be about the people. Now it's about the pay. 50-75% of city hall needs to have a pay cut, or have their job completely removed. These are the people who have constant meetings to feel "important".

40Is it really necessary to send more than one councillor to a convention? The councillor attending the convention could share when he or she returns and save a lot of money.

Tonight's Goo Goo Dolls concert has been cancelled
4Surprised?? I’m not. I’m curious how many tickets sold. Probably not enough brings on illnesses.

3Sold out in Sault Ste. Marie is not a big deal. What’s that, 3,000 tickets? That doesn’t even cover their gas and the wages for the stage crew.
