This snow is awesome. Yeah, it's a pain at the moment but man is it fun. Skiing is awesome. Sledding is awesome. Everyone with a well is not going to have to worry about water levels for a good part of the Summer. This is what winter in Thunder Bay used to be like and kids had a blast! I wonder where all the global warming alarmists have disappeared to. Weren't we supposed to have palm trees at the marina by now? lol

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.

this also place financial strain on parents as well. Tuition is far too expensive and should be free in Canada.

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).

A sad day, the consequence of our digital age though. I wonder how our local paper will source product, assuming it did use local newsprint? Along with this site, I do read the local paper.

Ran all 5 of the PM there for close to 40 years. I was one of the lucky ones to retire with a full pension in 2015. The last 10 years I worked there you were never sure it would still be running for very long. It did go down around 2008 I believe for months and months but somehow came back to life till it finally shut down now for good. Sorry to see this happen but its been in the cards for a long time and the digital age has taken over. Papermakers were always a rare breed but they are tough and most will go on to better futures. Good luck Local 257 & 39 brothers.
