POLL: Under a third of readers want an early Ontario election
25People must vote or we will end up with Ford once again. Only about 24% of people voted last time which is shameful. I wish people had to vote like in Australia and we wouldn’t have these low numbers electing our politicians.

OPINION: 'Guelph has become a cold and mean place in recent weeks'
GuelphToday 25I understand where you are coming from; however, do you think the encampments enhance our downtown core? Would you like Guelph to become a ghost town with closed up businesses and residents all shopping at malls around the city instead of utilizing the businesses and entertainment provided in the downtown core? If the encampments are left and allowed to grow our city will no longer be the vibrant city that it is capable of being. We absolutely have a homeless crisis that must be addressed but leaving the encampments in the downtown core is not the answer. We need creative, educated city planners to come up with ideas to respond to this crisis situation.

Dr. Anne-Marie Zajdlik to seek Guelph federal Green Party nomination
GuelphToday 21What a great Green Party Candidate Anne-Marie Zajdlik would be; however, the Federal Green Party is in a mess with inside bickering unlike Mike Schreiner’s Ontario Greens. I wish you good luck!

9An early election could put Ford ahead of further fallout from the Greenbelt scandal and the ongoing RCMP investigation into the land grab.

O'Rourke to carry Liberal banner for Guelph in next federal election
GuelphToday 5Yes, it isn’t easy, especially for women running for office with all the vitriol thrown at them. She deserves our support.

VIDEO: Doug Ford’s campaign manager thinks Pierre Poilievre could get ‘obliterated’
4Carney absolutely does not want Canadian companies to move to the US. Of course some in the UK will not regard Carney’s time as Governor of the Bank of England as productive years as Carney warned them about Brexit and how it would impact the economy and they chose to ignore his advice and vote for it. The clowns are running the circus in the US. Be very careful who you vote for!

Most local elementary schools are air conditioned, but 12 aren't
GuelphToday 7I too am a retired teacher who taught in non A/C schools my whole career. It was difficult then but in 2024 with Climate Change temperatures, it is intolerable for both students and teachers. Do you think students can learn under these conditions?? We need a government which deems education is more important than beer and new roads!

Guelph resident ‘terrified’ of looming CTS site closure
GuelphTodayAaron, I know that the government has made a short-sighted decision that will affect countless people who need help. My question is will Guelph receive a Homelessness and Addiction Recovery (HART) hub to replace the closing CTS site? It is too bad that you cannot face Doug Ford and explain how the government’s decision will impact you. I wish you good luck Aaron.

Guelph students unite for first-ever Music Monday celebration
GuelphTodayThis is wonderful news and I hope that more music events take place in Guelph. Many public schools do not have music programs at all which is very sad. Music is not only good for brain development and language skills but also social skills. I saw the results firsthand with my students when I taught the Orff music program in various public schools.
