City of Guelph Sunshine List grows by 104 staffers in 2025
29This list should start at $150K. $100K is becoming a new average for people who went to school and were lucky enough to get a decent job. Sunshine list old.

‘Bring it on’: Council praises 24-storey student housing proposal
10Well, wont this be great. Perhaps this (otherwise unemployable) council ought to strive to not have this project as another of its underthought, misguided, without the possibility of negative consequence decisions. I was at UoG many moons ago...imagine having 1200+ students at this proximity to our Downtown. Think this one through...I gotta get outta here.

17That's a sad lesson of indoctrination. Taxpayer money, which potentially funds their theoretical future education, is not an entitlement and is therefore not theirs. It's sad that they see it any other way. It is a gift and a privilege to receive taxpayer subsidy. Why is this contentious?

‘Bring it on’: Council praises 24-storey student housing proposal
25This looks like a great proposal for an otherwise fairly lifeless section of Wyndham St. Animating the street there with a cafe and retail will extend the downtown feel further and the proximity to the GO station is exactly where this kind of development should be. Bring it on indeed!

‘Bring it on’: Council praises 24-storey student housing proposal
23When I was a student in Guelph from 2010–2014, I didn't own a car. Parking is priced-in to the cost of housing, so this will be more affordable for students than if it included more parking. As someone who didn't own a car, this would have been great for me and my roommates.People ≠ Cars—let's not let a lack of parking get in the way of building housing downtown. We don't want or need more cars downtown. 400 spaces would mean more expensive units, less housing, and more cars coming and going from downtown. Let's get this built.

27Don’t use Uber Eats or Skip the Dishes - it doesn’t take much effort to pick up your own food - and way cheaper for all involved!

27So let me get this straight City Hall and city Council knows we’re not to buy a house but the rest of us don’t. That makes a lot of sense.

18Just as a quick note there are people in wheelchairs living in Guelph on $14,701 per year.Could we not as a city direct some funds towards these people, seeing as how we can afford 1/5 of a million salaries.

23What's the problem with more students living downtown B Be? Sure they might not go to the Farmer's Market, but they'll go to arts venues, support local shops, and add young life to a somtimes geriatric downtown. Not all students are crazy partiers—many are my neighbours and they are serious, studious, and smart.

18And these are the people that are responsible for the idiotic TAX increases we face every year. They drive the city of Guelph into the ground with NO accountability, then receive these unjustified ridiculous salaries, FOR WHAT ? We need a complete house cleaning at city hall , the sooner the better.

Guelph’s termite problem is back: staff report
22Why is the general population of Guelph not informed where the problem location is?? The more residents are informed the better to control the problem. What is the City of Guelph hiding and what is there reasoning for it. Hide criminals , hide pedophiles , hide the names of all the people that knowingly break the law in Guelph , AND NOW hide THE TERMITES location. Good work City Hall may they be on your door step next.

19$100,000 in 1996 (when the list was first published) becomes $187,755 in 2025 (using posted CPI increases from Stats Can.This means the CAO is 147% above the threshold (current dollars).However, the links in the article do not show values in the article!

16Perhaps it has something to do with the wild swing from an 85% grant to a 25% one? Given also that summer jobs are now more difficult to get, the price of everything has gone up and the fact that we have a provincial premier who splashes out on studies for a tunnel under the 401, an island for a convention centre in Lake Ontario, and is now prepared to annex Billy Bishop airport so he can expand it and land jets there. It seems curious that this is the same premier who is urging students to get a post secondary education, but only in certain areas.
