Commissioning this report is exactly why this council would be harassed. Let me understand, 3000 +/- people voted for each council member, they are grossly underqualified to run a city, they act without consequence, they get scared they might be "harassed" (read held accountable), so they commission an outside law firm to tell them how they could react, but who knows, since no harassment has been reported? I have a headache.

Well, 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.

The real issue is Guelph City Council are simply easily taken in, as are (were) most every municipality, by these snake oil salesmen / saleswomen (better get that one right), who plead, "what about the children," when it is all gas lighting so they can get their 91.4%...imagine someone comes to your house offering that kind of deal...too good to be true, then not true. But alas, the folly of Guelph Council continues...like their voting, like the busses...just pathetic.

Nice one Guelph. Minimum 47 more cars on ill prepared roads in our neck of the woods. Approved variances, by cognitively vacant city staff, reduce setbacks by not less than 25% up to 50%...but, hey, 47 new property tax rolls...which will amount to zero impact on current or future taxpayers. Foresight is a thing of the past.

Better shut the hospital down, close the schools, close the restaurants......see how insane it is today vs 2021?

Huh...Canada Day, nope. NYE, nope. I wonder why the Financial Statements of the Rotary Club of Guelph are unavailable?

Weird....2024 financial statements show total revenue of $900,013...and, wages ate up $583,558 of those revenues, maybe handouts ought to be reduced - both on the wages side and meals side...

The author of this propagates the artists' Liberal (and negative) views of Conservative people under the guise of news. Since when was "news" a platform for commentary and advocacy. Just give me the news and not all this Liberal slanted mockery of Conservatives. This ought to be an x post vs on GuelphToday.

Reading this foolish City's budget appears purposely vague - first thing. Then to have these untrained, under educated, irresponsible, consequence immune, fiscally inept, barely elected (not even 30,000 votes cast in most recent municipal elections) officials now tell us "we can fix Sleeman Centre's losses" (of nearly $4,000 per day!) can only be taken as a joke. What a place that we can let this happen. Mayor got just above 20,000 votes in 2022 and no councilor over 3,500 votes. And, on the heels of seeking raises.

Well, tell you friends, neighbors, anyone who will listen...if the Libs mock us and call another election...VOTE CONSERVATIVE!

Another example of under and illeducated, 3000 +/- vote getting councillors making decisions without consequences to themselves. What an absolutely stunningly stupid decision.

Then cancel it like Canada Day 2024!

Right, so the vendor convinces council, (who acts for their constituents, (of whom I would guess zero asked for the cameras)), to install for safety. And, the vendor gets $750K in 6 weeks, and the dramatic decrease in injuries or deaths are....zero. So, compliance to the speed limits is now the only metric, on which the vendor will receive over $100K per week. What a gig.

Staggeringly authoritative. My land I paid for. I paid for the tree. I planted it 20 years ago. Our insurance salesman Mayor says I cannot cut it down.
