POLL: Younger readers happier with Donald Trump's win

Couldn't agree more, as a self identified cosial leftis I'm appalled by the monolithic ideology motivation behind the anti trump sentiment.

Poilievre and his magic 'axe' versus the curse of city hall

GuelphToday

Less opinionated commentary and a bit more engagement would be great for professional reputation. Thanks Adam it was a fun rant

Poilievre and his magic 'axe' versus the curse of city hall

GuelphToday

I voted for the carbon tax, I was duped because of ignorance and rhetoric. Unless China and other countries adopt the carbon tax it is the single most ridiculous thing Canada is doing to its own citizens. We are being overtaxed, and exporting all of our jobs to countries that are running off of coal fired power plants with no human rights, quality control or democratic systems. After we have done this, we purchase all of our products from these places with blind eyes and burden our system more with trying to dispose of the products. So all of the revenue is given to other countries while all the costs are accrued here at home. Axe The tax is the one size fits all solution at the moment

City has received over 100 complaints about election signs already

GuelphToday

I didn't know we could complain! How about complaining about city councilors that choose to put their democratically entrusted job on hold for political partisan interests?

All schools closed, buses cancelled today

GuelphToday

What a joke, no wonder Trump is picking on us. How about we try to act like adults again? It's snow, and it fell a day and a half ago.

Million-dollar makeover coming to Boathouse retaining wall and stairs

GuelphToday

Of course they have to keep us safe from the river... this is so disappointing. When will our infatuation with safety be eclipsed by our human need to grow again? Safety is an ever receding line of illusion. Soon rivers will be banned and the ice cream will be served at room temperature to avoid the dangers of brain freeze.

What a ridiculous excuse for a province. Coercion is okay as long as everyone else agrees

One would think the evidence was a sufficient bet to rely on. Sadly, in a post-truth society populism is all that matters

With apparently no new ideas, the mayor is raising the dead

GuelphToday

Villainizing politicians is as childish as villainizing the homeless population, this is a big complicated mess of a problem, hence why it's not just in one city. Rather than demoralizing our leaders maybe we could try supporting them. They are after all responsible for more than just the homeless in the city

Poilievre and his magic 'axe' versus the curse of city hall

GuelphToday

If you're interested in helping your neighbors, then support the axe . Outsourcing our pollution to China which also has poor human rights, Environmental rights, Quality control, democracy and then punishing businesses locally so that nobody has jobs anymore isn't helping your neighbors

Agreed.

POLL: What our online polls tell us about Liberal voters

Unfortunately, usefulness isn't straightforward. Much of what is discovered through inquiry is a waste of time until you accept it as the cost of discovery. Like archeology, the sand is the obstacle but necessary to contend with if one wants the hidden treasure.

A midsummer's transit rant

GuelphToday

Couldn't agree more. I've written the city expressing as much, particularly with respect to the electrification of the entire fleet at the expense of frequency, accessibility and sheltered bus stops.People who don't use bus systems that are making the rules this is part of the problem. People with ideological environmental concerns, rather than substantive solutions for the environment, this is another part of the problem.
