Is there any major construction by the city that was not dysfunctional, having one or more lawsuits and severely over budget?

Anyone out there get a 6.7% wage increase this year to keep up with the insane tax increases every year? Yeah, I didn't either.

Sorry, don't be putting your job 'on hold' as a backup in case you don't win an election - quit your job. How is this even allowed? We need councilors present to deal with the city issues, not distracted by other things.

I find it a joke he's still the premier, given all the shady things he has been doing and then trying to hide it.

How much blood from a stone can they squeeze - won't be happy until 99.99% of alcohol price is tax?

This administration seems to think every taxpayer is just an ATM and has unlimited money to spend on pet projects. I'm going to be voting for people who actually care about fiscal responsibility in the upcoming election.

Just needs some reasonably priced local drinks, regular pub food and good service. Keep upstairs going with live music and funk night like before. It can't be that hard. I'd love to sit on the patio again.

He does realize that. He just doesn't care and is riding the gravy train as long as he can.

As usual, all these 'outside boards' gets their piece of the pie, as well as uneeded projects like the operations hub, and taxpayers are treated like bank machines. I certainly didn't get an 8% raise this year. That means year over year for as long as I can remember in this city even before this Doug Ford downloading thing, this city keeps taking a bigger percentage of my take home pay.

Giving them a tax break essentially means taxpayers have to pay for infrastructure so they can make their massive profits. No thanks I have enough paying for my own things instead of subsidizing developers.

Doug Ford is busy directing more money to his developer and police buddies.

How about holding the police accountable for lowering their budget increase instead of just rubber stamping their huge 9.9% increase..?

This is mostly a virtue signaling program that's not really going to produce much and will end up costing the city and taxpayers more than what the program brings in.

Great, just when there's been so many cyclists injured from distracted drivers not paying attention, or driving drunk in this city this year.

The problem is the fines aren't big enough. It's just the cost of doing business for these crooked grocery companies.

Great, so we'll have a big grocery store that has a smaller pharmacy right across the parking lot from a big pharmacy that has a little grocery store. Makes sense.

Hopefully people will finally realize this guy is corrupt and incompetent and stop voting for him next time around.

He could start by voting down the proposed police budget increase on the police services board, and also canceling the unnecessary Operations center.

Noise is a huge issue with speed bump/humps/cushions or whatever you want to call them nowadays and needs to be considered. There was some temporarily installed in front of my house and the noise all hours of the night was much higher from trucks, trailers rattling and creaking over them, and everyone gunning their engines after the humps to accelerate after, creating a lot of noise and more exhaust emissions. Noise was probably double of what it is when people are going a constant speed and not rattling over these speed bumps. I couldn't sit on the front porch when the speed bumps where there.

flip flop flip flop. Typical city council.
