We have received an astronomical amount of snow. The fact the roads are still passable is a feat in and of itself. Not many cities in ontario could cope with the amount of snow we've received. Everyone is doing a great job!

The even more frustrating part is the sleds causing the issues likely don't even have a permit!

I think this can be done at the local level (i.e. parents)... children should be growing up with 0 expectation of privacy on all online devices. You don't have any anyways, it might as well start with the parents monitoring the usage. No "alone" time online, whether that's physically watching or using one of many available apps to monitor this.

Having the sewage treated versus leeching into the ground (septic) sounds like an improvement. It's good for everyone to be involved though! Hoping for clear and concise answers and for people to listen to experts on the matter.

What are you suggesting? Don't fix roads so we fan save tax $?How the lanes are painted is pretty secondary to that. And arguably this will save wear and tear, as discussed in the article. Arguing bike lanes are dumb (which they may be) has nothing to do with taxes. Also - we have a chronic speeding issue in this city. Traffic calming measures are not always bad.

Wouldn't one lane each way be better in winter? There was a few times it was one lane anyways due to snow.

Before all the comments come pouring in that won't be taken into account, take 5 minutes to respond to the official poll the city has out:https://www.publicinput.ca/y63107

The snow removal standards on queen are reflected in the taxes that are charged to property owners down there. They pay more.

Hey hockey04..The $10/day childcare is huge. It's allowing many people to be able to go to work when it used to not make sense to. More tax revenue and contribution to GDP. The new dental plan? Also pays dividends in that people are going to the dentist for preventative care versus showing up at the ER when things get to that point.These two examples will take years to show the benefit, but it's there (and pretty common sense in my opinion).

Congratulations - sootoday's clever hook writing claims another victim (which is their point exactly)It's too bad the point was missed... sorry to say but yours is moot.

I would imagine elevators would be a requirement - indoor parking would likely improve accessibility especially in the winter time.
