City still seeing Ontario’s highest opioid death rate, despite decline
45Why should addicts stop using fatal drugs, when they get all the assistance they require to continue using these fatal drugs. Enabling is off the charts and contributes to the deaths.

Ford’s PCs vote to end access to political officials’ records
17I do not agree with this whatsoever but maybe tbnewswatch can also do an article on how Carney is stacking up committees with Liberals to block investigations on potential Liberal corruption and his conflicts of interests

16This is Thunder Bay. Did anyone actually expect a guilty verdict?

LETTER: Who profits from skyrocketing gas prices?
14I don't disagree in principle, but a lot of people are inflicting harm on themselves by buying big ridiculous fuel-inefficient SUVs and pickup trucks.Just like if you do not vote, then you have no right to complain... if you drive a gas-guzzler, then you don't get to comment on gas prices.

Harris plans to run for mayor a second time
33I’m not voting for him but it’s interesting you decided to follow his case to conclusion and name him. Not the same for rapists and violent offenders. Personal agenda?

35Without being disrespectful, I don't think readers can pass judgment on any criminal case without knowing all of the evidence, testimony or aspects of the law in which the charges were laid.

2450 people hardly represents everyone......why do people exaggerate such trivial numbers....I am not impressed seeing this come from a teacher.

2450 people??! .05% of the population? That’s embarrassing. Apparently Ford is doing just fine.

21The population of Ontario is over 16 million and Ford has a majority government and would likely win another if an election was held today. 50 people in a city metropolitan population of about 145 000 is not even close to being significant. If democracy is being eroded as they say… they wouldn’t be able to have their little protest in front of an MPP’s office. I can think of better ways to spend a beautiful Saturday.

Over 100 distracted driving charges laid in recent blitz
32No surprise. Glance around at any intersection when you're stopped. You'll pretty much always see a driver on their phone!

23I agree with many of Mr. Harris’ points. Spending heavily on shelter villages risks normalizing homelessness rather than solving it. That funding would be better used for treatment facilities that address addiction and mental health at the root—where real, lasting change happens.He also brings up accountability, which is often avoided. There are valid concerns about whether funding intended to support Indigenous people is actually reaching those who need it most. If it isn’t, that’s a serious issue that deserves honest discussion and better oversight.At the same time, bringing up Mr. Harris’ past feels unnecessary. If he has served his sentence, voters can make their own judgment. It distracts from the real issues.Thunder Bay needs practical solutions, not political framing or personal attacks.
