Homeless encampment motion 'urgently' calls for gov't action
BayToday
42Horsefield"s vision, regurgitated NDP talking points. We have spent 100's of millions, have countless agencies,100s of employees all to deal with 350 people. What would North Bay be like if we spent all that money and used all those resources to improve the city for the other 49,650 residents?

Two North Bay councillors voted off Cassellholme Board
BayToday 33What a surprise, ask about illegal use of funds and quickly get thrown off the board. Just another Chirico cover up aided by Soendacino.

Councillor Lowery introduces motion seeking answers from Cassellholme Board
BayToday 25North Bay contributes 2.5 million to Cassellholme. Since the councilors who are there to oversee that the money is properly spent have been removed from the board for questioning the expenditures, it's certainly Council's duty to investigate.

Design-builder named for new arena. Target price $60 million
BayToday 18There is a 0% chance that this can be completed by year end 2025, which is the deadline for the Federal funding. There will be a new government by then that will not be supportive of this "green" initiative. What happens when we are stuck with the whole bill?

Business owner feels no luck as construction devastates his business
BayToday 20Bunch of clueless bureaucrats who have never been in the private sector. Seems all the projects by this low balling bidder never are done on time or conform to the requirements.

Residents raise alarm about huge Canadore College LTC development
BayToday 15Can anyone name any business venture that Canadore has been involved with that wasn’t a failure? I’m mistaken, the diploma mill business was a huge success, especially for some.

MPP: Delayed Canadore addictions treatment centre will soon open
BayToday 15@ambiIt’s a case of previous people who ran King st, with absolutely no success running this. 60 people will go in, mostly not from here, they are free to leave or will be thrown out for not following the rules, just like last time. Then they will stay here on the street. It’s also a money laundering scheme, the rent Canadore is paying is triple the going rate. Read the article, it’s all there.

Gathering Place funding request denied by DNSSAB Board
BayToday 11How come the ski hill keeps getting money with no accountability? Same exact problem, mismanagement and Board incompetence. I guess if you’re Chair is the Mayor’s campaign manager you don’t have to answer questions.

Council training renews focus on when meetings should and shouldn’t be in-camera
BayToday 12As in almost all things regarding this council, the 7 rely entirely on staff, they don't act in any way independently, so in this case they just let the Clerk decide what goes in camera, completely abdicating their responsibility. The Clerk merely does Peter's bidding.

City of North Bay fills long-vacant CFO position with internal hire
BayToday 7@itscommonsenseI know lots of things, I know people far more qualified who applied and didn’t get an interview. Just like the sham process for the CAO.

City budget will see 3.73 per cent levy increase
BayToday 8The usual smoke and mirrors, spending is going up far more than 3.73%. Using all these 1 time revenues,which shouldn't be a surprise when the first quarter of this year is already over,is hardly fiscal prudence. Salaries will be going up far more than the 3% budgeted. we will be paying substantially more interest on the rink and Cassellhome next year along with a large drop in interest income.Looked closer at revenue lines...how about looking closer at expenses?This city is in for a rude awakening when the "transferred from reserves" train goes off the tracks
