Trump calls PM ‘Governor Carney,’ threatens huge tariffs over China trade deal
OrilliaMatters
110I don't know that we have any other choice. The US is going to take longer than Trump's term to right itself especially since Republicans voters think he is doing a great job and they aren't going anywhere for a long time.

THE PAIKIN PODCAST: Knives out for Pierre Poilievre?
33Andrew I am not a party person and was very much over the liberals in power at the fed level. It was time for a conservative just as we needed a liberal at the provincial level. I vote for what I think the country needs and to keep a balance, not a party banner. No way ever would I give a vote to Poilivere, so I didn't.

Did mayor blow the lid off CAO firing controversy with 'hypothetical' scenario?
OrilliaMatters 34The mayor just gets worse every time he opens his mouth over these powers.

Orillia identifies three sites for possible social housing
OrilliaMatters 27The last paragraph is a big one. We are too small a city to house everybody who is needing homes from such a small tax base. The taxes are killing people who do have homes and are just hanging on.

Orillia could get strong mayor powers ... on a permanent basis
OrilliaMatters 25How does Ford have the right to abolish all city councils? Who needs to stop him? The courts? We need a new mayor to fight this for us asap.

Orillia could get strong mayor powers ... on a permanent basis
OrilliaMatters 20Not to mention we already have to deal with the omnipotence of Trump without adding Ford and McIsaac. It is just wrong!

Special council meeting on strong mayor powers set for Wednesday
OrilliaMatters 21They can do their talk with the lawyers at 2 pm and then an open session in the evening. This is going on too long. I must say there is nothing that could be disclosed now that would change my mind on the mayor or whatever promises he makes going forward with his agenda. There seemed to be a good working relationship between the mayor and the council and I can't see what problem made the mayor seek full power over everybody. Nobody is that special.

Encrypted police communications force Orillia to be less 'nosey'
OrilliaMatters 13It's a shame in that it gave good reports on petty crime, fights downtown, stolen bicycles, car break ins, etc. We don't get that info or statistics on smaller crimes anywhere. It's those crimes that affect most of us in the city. People who haven't followed the page have no clue what is actually going on in this city. You'd be shocked.

Orillia senior angry after waiting more than 45 minutes for ambulance
OrilliaMatters 12The 87 years old part should definitely put her up on the priority list and the vomiting. With a heart attack pain can be all over the place.

THE PAIKIN PODCAST: Mark Carney bets big on China — what could go wrong?
10Lol @ blaming Carney who is trying to negotiate with a fool without a clue. We won't even mention the childish temper tantrums, oh wait, I just did.

BREAKING: Doug Ford says Orillia will be getting a new hospital
OrilliaMatters 5How are we going to power a new hospital which is an admittedly stupid comment but it jumped right into my head since I was expecting more help with hydro type remarks.

Ford government to limit debate, skip public hearings on bill to scrap speed cameras
OrilliaMatters 12The speed cameras plus a flashing light that you are entering a safety zone should cut off debate. If you can't see the lights and speed through you shouldn't be driving.

VIDEO: The pandemic is long over, but a new report reveals we’re far from alright
SooToday 9Crazy how the brain can block out things like deaths around the world, in every single country. Crazy also how the brain can picture all those same countries, democratic, authoritarian, totalitarian, monarchies, oligarchies, all getting together sitting at a table and all agreeing to do a gotcha on their people. The brain is a marvel.

‘Special economic zones’ bill would let Ford government exempt any project from provincial laws
OrilliaMatters 12With the federal government having so little say over the provinces in a lot of matters, I can't help feeling that feeling of a lack of democracy creeping over us in Ontario that the U.S is experiencing. All these stories, including the Strong Mayor Powers are leading us in a bad direction.
