Student protest keeps efforts to get RBC off campus alive
40What a bunch of hypocrites. Do they walk everywhere they go? How do they heat their homes? Do they not realize petroleum products are in everything from the clothes they wear to the paint they used on their signs? The 20 people protest is far from news worthy

23No cars for all the protesters see how long it takes to change their minds on fossil fuels. Better yet let’s turn off the heat in their homes!

23Get a kick of the ones trying to hide behind their signs lol. On a serious note the ignorance of this generation is amazing. They dont seem to understand how much these fuels impact their lives. I would love to them trying to live 1 week with out everything that fossil fuels were involved with. The first 12 hours without wifi and their phone they would lose it!

20Who from this group is paying for the media coverage of this “protest” lol. 10 people who all clearly use fossil fuels everyday complaining about them is hilarious

18They have been told this repeatedly and all over the road and… never respond to or acknowledge the hypocrisy. 20 people out of LU’s 9500 student body. RBC shouldn’t even answer the phone.

17A bunch of self entitled spoiled kids who would be the first to complain when their conveniences quit working. Oil is here to stay whether they like it or not for a long time yet to come for this is the technology level the globe is at.

16At a Town Hall held by NDP members in Thunder Bay NDP house leader John Vanthof said that MTO tracks locations of road accidents as I recall. He said the worst area was in his riding, Timiskaming-Cochrane, and Shabaqua area was the 2nd worst for accidents in the province. A woman who survived being hit by a transport which ran the stop sign at Shabaqua corner said there are apparently 7 different warnings of the approaching STOP sign and that "the road ends" (in a "T" intersection with highway 11/17). So how is it that drivers are missing the requirement to "stop"? Perhaps Reb Beckett can contact MTO and MPP Vanthof and share how we can use this "dangerous highway info" to advocate for more measures to make highways safer. And perhaps it can start with MTO requiring and overseeing proper training and licencing of truck drivers, done by the province, NOT private operators.

14If I was RBC, I'd call in their loans immediately and tell them to find a new bank.

14"Council has already heard from homeowners who live near the proposed site that it could negatively impact their property values."Maybe should have thought about that before moving next to "[the] vacant Mud Lake Road property that is currently zoned light industrial".More on why local meat prices are so high at 11.

VIDEO: Local teachers unions skeptical of new 'Classroom Supplies Fund'
7Teachers should NEVER have to pay out of pocket for school supplies. I know teachers that are constantly at Dollarama buying supplies for students. There are many have nots and not every parent can afford school supplies for their kids. When did it become the teacher’s responsibility to pay for schools supplies? The issue is once teachers started buying school supplies the government cut way back on supplies knowing they no longer had to buy them as teachers felt bad for kids and were supplying them. The government should be paying to supply students with the bare minimum, note books , erasers, pens , pencils , rulers, in the younger grades , crayons , glue etc. After all “it’s all about the kids” right Doug?

9Weather and bad drivers making bad decisions are usually the cause.I have seen two transport racing past the, " the road narrows in 300m "signs . I have also seen people pull out on front of transports or drive too fast for the road conditions. Data sites can't fix bad driving.

Landlord failed to evict tenant after noise complaints
13So in order for this landlord to evict this tenant so the neighbours can have peace and quiet they have to stand outside the home in order to hear the noise and fighting themselves? Of course the landlord didn't hear it themselves, they don't live there!
