Oh, for heaven's sake, stop being so thin-skinned! If you’re truly that sensitive, you might be in the wrong job. Why should they need to call or notify you in any way if you were genuinely aware of their issues? Again, this suggests you may not be suited for this role. There is a significant lack of leadership in addressing ongoing problems, and I suspect they are so frustrated with this lack of proactive problem-solving that they wanted to draw attention to the situation through the media, hoping for a better outcome than what they have experienced. Threatening them with "Oh, there will be a response" reveals more about you than it does about them or these ongoing unresolved issues.
Indeed, someone might perceive that you are travelling at an excessive speed, but this perception can vary. This is particularly true if the person is someone who knows you and may have a personal bias against you.
Vic, your service is exceptional, and you must know your hard work and dedication are recognized. Thank you for your outstanding contributions. We are very fortunate to have such a dedicated and hardworking representative in our riding. We have never had it better.
It's essential to understand where this money is coming from. The funds are drawn from the community's discretionary spending, which many families have set aside for their own needs. Unfortunately, there is no real benefit to the community in this situation. Instead, the casino takes money away from local residents. As a result, promoting this as a significant benefit to our community can feel misleading and may not truly reflect the shared interests of the people who live here.
The entire situation was a scam. It cost millions of dollars to install the water meters, which will likely need to be replaced soon. This was merely an exercise in public relations, as our costs have actually increased without any demonstrable benefit to anyone. Additionally, it's worth noting that the City of North Bay is the largest source of water waste.
Honestly, I don't have much to say in response. Based on our local Conservation Authority's recent track record, if it were to go away or be taken over, it might not be all bad!
Awesome, Longtime. "casting a vote every few years does give you the right to know about someone's personal life." If it indeed grants you the right to know about someone's personal life, then I want to know every juicy detail!
As of early 2026, there are no Costco warehouses under construction in the Muskoka region. While there have been rumours about locations in Huntsville or Bracebridge, Costco typically does not announce new sites until 2-3 months before opening.The nearest Costco for Muskoka residents is in Orillia, which opened in 2023. A 2025 satirical Facebook post about a "Costco Island" in Gravenhurst was just a joke.Although no Costco is planned for Muskoka, products like Muskoka Brand gourmet sauces can be found at other Ontario Costco locations. For now, residents will need to continue using the Orillia location.
Bonnett, who started using the Midland TD branch after moving to Victoria Harbour 25 years ago, said Midland needs to work harder to ensure the downtown doesn’t become a ghost town by beefing up security or ensuring a larger police presence so shoppers feel safe.
