‘I don’t care what these costs are’: Ford addresses wildfire crisis
65I would be ashamed to be trying to take advantage of an emergency situation like this to force my agenda. OPSEU and their members need to learn to read the room. It’s not the time.

14Today’s visit would have been a good opportunity for the Premier to provide some answers.But he chose not to include First Nations leadership.

20Ford needs to switch to the liberal party since that’s. He isn’t a conservative at all, only by name.

10Billions for obsolete subs and fighter jets, but nothing for fighting fires. The guvmint has priorities and they don't include this country nor its citizens.

LETTER: Thunder Bay needs a children's charter and advocate
25Children should absolutely come first. Sadly, all the parks and most of the programs have been transferred over to adult drug addicts who chose that lifestyle. I think the majority of tax payers ( i say taxpayers instead of people because taxpayers have a different view of their money should be spent, whereas non payers just want for themselves) would rather pay for kids to have a better life and future than the adults stealing from us and making our city dirty, dangerous and gross.

23You have no idea what you’re talking about. Forest fires are fought at the provincial level. Wars are fought at the federal level.

10Patty Derangement Syndrome. Why not ask Holland or Ford? Not that Holland would anyway. Long term care is a provincial jurisdiction.

11All the people complaining should get out and fight the fires. As a younger guy, I often had to get out and do it.

16The action on the fires has been an utter disappointment at all levels of government. It took way too long for an aggressive response to be launched.

14Hey, Donut Duggie.Maybe it’s a point of being proactive and not reactive. You’ve neglected the northwest of Ontario for too long. Now you’re under the microscope for not being prepared. Wake up, please?

14The fact that this even has to be justified right now is brutal. There has been so much false information spreading around on social media that it is astonishing. We are actually on park on the average and in some cases below average right now. We just had a perfect recipe in a short amount of time is what has happened. There's too much blame going around and not enough helping each other and it's really sad.

'Stop running trains through active wildfire zones': Rail union not happy
10Lots of fire experts but little experience in actually haven been there in the past. Fires are dynamic when these types of conditions arise and one cannot shut down the highways or railways when there are fires in the general area - only when they approach these corridors. Fires will jump kilometers ahead of the main blaze in certain conditions and then one needs to respond.
