105 is not speeding!!! Ridiculous! If it wasn't for these construction zones the speed limit would still be 90!!! OPP must need to fill quota! These roads don't even need new pavement! Wasting tax payer dollars! Wake up Doug Ford! Listen to your people!
This needs to be declared a state of emergency. How dare this happen to some of our most vulnerable. This is an outrage on this company. These people have paid you good money to reside there
Say goodbye to small business! This is the final nail in the coffin! Council please do the right thing here and deny this permit! I won't stand for this!!! Please council WAKE UP!
I guess Chief King has found the latest issue he wants to milk. Billions and billions spent on indigenous affairs every year. You'd think the chiefs would allocate some of that money for emergency preparedness. You know, the way that, for example, Thunder Bay does with its much smaller per capita budget.
This is a perfect example of how different our local media treat stories. Last week cabinet minister Jill Dunlop went on the record and said she had called Alvin Fiddler twice, refuting the claim Fiddler made in his press conference saying no one from the government had reached out to him. Not a single local story was done with a headline accusing Fiddler of lying. To be clear I'm not defending Holland, if he is in fact lying he should absolutely be called out for it but the double standard from the local media had been made very clear.
How to heck can this happen in this day and age. The company that owns the building need to spend a very long time in jail. See how they like eating garbage food.
Again, where is the mayor and city council. Most have decided not to run again. Fine. But you still have a fuduciary duty until the November election to intervene here and prevent a calamity. If a residence dies in there then what? What kind of city and society are we becoming by allowing elderly and/or disabled people to suffer like this? Has our city council no shame? That might as well be a rhetorical question because it seems tht they don't!
Maybe it's time the Chief's and First Nations took over the operations & control of their own communities and stopped relying on the Federal & Provincial Gov'ts.
Living in a high risk fire zone and doing nothing to protect or prevent damage to your community is wild. That is the responsibility of the reserve. Blaming everybody else is even worse. This thing about whether or not he talked to him is going to be very interesting to find out if he's wrong. I wonder if it's possible he didn't realize who he was talking to.
