It would also be nice if some city employees would shovel out the entrances to residential neighborhoods that remain a mountain of ice and snow for days after the snow plows clears just the main st streets.
Thunder bay needs some real entertainment. Events like rib fest and this thing should not be a festival . It should be an add on to an existing event that actually brings people in. The fact that a a poutine food truck is a waterfront attraction shows how hard up tbay is for some entertainment here
Time to start a petition telling the public school board that the schools should stay open for parents that can drive their kids to school! The schools should remain open even if the buses get cancelled. Oh and look Holy Family school part of the catholic board on Rosslyn Road remains open!
Lakehead Public School Board needs to stop closing schools because of a snow forecast. Yes i agree cancel buses but kids can be driven to school by their parents so there NO reason the school can't be open for these students.
Seriously? We need another separate organization for this? What does a sexual preference have to do with obtaining funds for a business? Whatever happened to having a good solid business plan with research, facts and accountability??
The financial risk associated with attending university needs to be placed squarely on the students, especially as they are ones that chose to attend university and are the ones that benefit specifically from obtaining university degrees. Placing the financial responsibility on students will hopefully motivate them to pick disciplines responsibly and to actually graduate within four years of starting university. Placing the financial burden on students will hopefully minimize people studying for two years before dropping out and never completing a degree; attending three universities over eight years, only to receive a general BA; or selecting questionable disciplines like Gender Studies and Social Justice Studies.
What a bunch of propaganda. I am all for SKILLED immigration but this is not what is happening Just look up the youth unemployment rate in Canada and see who is working entry level jobs. Ridiculous these “case studies”
I am relieved because I was worried that we hadn't had a press release from Mr. Veltri in some time and I got used to the almost weekly pace from previous years.
I'm perfectly fine with a stable or declining economy. Why do we need endless growth? At a time where the majority of the Canadian population feels we are admitting too many immigrants, this announcement seems pretty tone deaf (and a big waste of money).
Jails are not prisons, similar issues, but jail have people not convicted of any crime. Plus, we are judged on how we treat those and torture is never ok.
