Ontario 'ripping up' $100 million deal with Elon Musk's Starlink in response to U.S. tariffs

73

I haven’t agreed with Fords policies in Ontario at all but l am in full agreement with this. Any other existing agreements with the USA should also be carefully examined and canceled where at all possible. Stop all future business or Provincial purchases from the USA. This war we did not instigate or ask for but one that must be won.

Can you explain to us peons…why the LTC facility in Trout Creek is not under construction? After all the Lady Isabelle Nursing Home was closed in 2017. The North Bay Area did lose 65 LTC beds. It has caused much angst at the NBRHC. You said you are working very hard to correct this? The developer is a buddy of yours. There are 1,150 people on the waiting list for a LTC bed in North Bay (July 31,2024). This is your riding? Or is a Terrific Toronto Traffic Tunnel more important?

Three local candidates may vie for Liberal nomination federally: Rota

BayToday

25

There are those who dislike the idea of any Liberal at the helm of this country. This is not without good reason. However…since our southern neighbour has decided to declare an economic war with Canada. It may be in our interest to have a Carney under the big top. I think PP is out of his element, whereas Carney may be quite at home. Interesting Times, eh?

Trump's NORAD comments don't concern North Bay Mayor

BayToday

29

Well, I beg to differ Mayor Chirico, ignore what Trump is saying at our peril. He is dismantling NATO and he has four years to do it. Wake up! We’re not reviewing/evaluating Australian radar technology for no reason. I hope the building material suppliers for the new Ice Palace are all Canadian companies.

TRILLIUM TALK: Like it or not, Ford insists we need an election

24

A mandate? Have you or any of your cronies been cleared by the RCMP re: Greenbelt Inquiry Mr. Ford? I don’t think so. Trump tariff threats have provided you with a great distraction but try to remember you’re only a Provincial Premier and not our Prime Minister, eh.

City leaders won't pull the chute on Americans at Armed Forces Day

BayToday

14

Yes…why should a City stop flying a flag of a country whose stated goal is to economically bring us to our knees and destroy our way of life? Why wouldn’t we just invite their Dear Leader here to join us in the celebration? Why indeed, wake up and get your collective head out of the sand North Bay City Council.

VIDEO: Trump looms large in Ford government’s latest budget

23

Mr. Ford… North Bay’s, Canadore College LTC was to have been opened in 2024 with 160 LTC beds? Lady lssabelle LTC in Trout Creek was closed in 2017 with the loss of 66 LTC beds. Your government has taken credit for these LTC facilities construction? Where are they? Have you provided any funds for their construction? The LTC bed shortage situation is critical and our (your) MPP Vic Fedeli continues ignoring it.

Ontario warns of $200 rebate cheque scams

BayToday

I’m still not sure why I got this cheque from Mr. Ford? I kinda thought this Province was in a big debt? It does seem like a very strange time to be giving away money. It couldn’t be that there is a Provincial Election this month…could it? Is he trying to buy my vote?

Councillor Inch wants to fix 'disappointing' town hall meetings

BayToday

If this was an attempt by City council to appear open, fair and accountable…it failed. Apparently they only listen to those who they wish to listen to. Same old council…same old excuses…of course they were hand cuffed by the same old rules (by-laws).

Maybe I missed it but as Ontario’s Minister of Industry any concerns about Rayonier layoffs or the Espanola mill closure. That was a big hit…or is it the just free market expressing itself. We’re open for business? How did foreign business ownership work out for us peons in these cases? Still feeling the excitement are we?

How does one deal with a bully? I have a mental picture of Trump with a broken nose. Trudeau should have sucker punched him. It would have caused quite a scene at Mar a Largo and done nothing to foster any future CAN/USA relationship but it would have bonded Canada together better than any anthem or flag. Peace and love from your northern neighbour. Anthems, pins, hats and flags are for the insecure.

Ahhhh…the Ice Palace, tis hard to believe that it is constructed of all “genuine” Canadian parts but one must believe, what one is told…for there are many parts that must come together at this hallowed location. Indeed, it does indeed emit a bit of a golden hue…just the smoke and mirrors, I guess.
