Means chemicals or something unnatural. We should be able to choose we put in our bodies.

Disgusting. Peter was not transparent, he got caught after 3 years of using the corporate card for his own personal use. He reimbursed the money, only because he got caught. The CEO is just as much at fault. They are obviously friends and thought nobody would ever find out. He should be investigated. Now we are being punished and having to pay $23,000 because of Peter’s stealing habit. Peter should be terminated. If city council does not at the very least implement a 90 day termination, they are just as guilty. For those who plan to run again, now is your chance to make this right. Jamie, can you tell the public how this all came to be?

The mayor has admitted to using the credit card for his own personal use. He should be forced to step down as mayor and the police board until the investigation is complete. It is unthinkable that Peter would be allowed to sit at his desk and access his computer. We all know that he is covering up his lies, the longer he is in there, the less people will trust the final report. Get him out now!

Absolutely! He refuses to get a security clearance. He’s above the law. TRUMP He will not allow reporters to follow him during his campaign. TRUMP He and Trump hate each other. No negotiating there TRUMP NOTHING “Free” in his own words. Including prescriptions for seniors and Social assistance. No dental. No “free” daycare. Raising the cost to $50/day/ child , shutting down non profit agencies - mental health, disabled services etc. TRUMP

Can I call the Premier an idiot? Take that 3 billion dollars and put it towards something useful. Get your head out of the sand, we don’t need fancy license plates, beer in stores or a $200 cheque. We need money invested into mental health/addiction facilities. We need better health care, we need to regulate truck driving training to make our highways safe etc etc. . We need so much more than a $200 cheque. Have you been hiding under a rock? What a waste of time and money.

Best news in a long time. Now this is much better than a $250 cheque. Can we do something like this for the homeless?

I hope it doesn’t involve a raise. There is no need for 6 people standing around smoking or sitting in the truck while one person is using the shovel. Ask the summer students about the naps. So wrong!!! Time for layoffs, those city workers might just be satisfied with their wages after all.

Dan- best of luck running for mayor. Integrity is a prerequisite which our current mayor lacks. Your house is always eye catching!

Because they don’t want their lies being recorded.

Were you MIA all these years Calandra? Should we be thanking the former supervisor who is also MIA for getting your attention?These results are not new!. The Ontario government felt it was necessary (popularity votes) to enforce a new curriculum to elementary students which focused on gender identity , transgender, or becoming a “cat” if they wished. It was obvious that this was going to take away from something. Ie Math, English. There is only so much time in a day. And so, here we are! It took for a supervisor who worked in an empty building for years and is now MIA or maybe not, to bring to the minister of education that our kids are not learning Math and English. But they understand it’s ok to take a 15 min break to lick their paws. So, don't act like you’re surprised that kids are failing.

Longtime. It wasn’t the “people” it’s been the last few city councils and Mayor who couldn’t make a decision. Waste of money. Maybe we need an arena, but it doesn’t have to be a palace.

Sounds like a group of people who just wanted to get home. Once again the citizens have no say.

Would people who are employable and use the service be interested in volunteering to gain experience and a positive work reference. This could actually lead to employment opportunities.

1. Anyone using the corporate credit card for personal use, will be terminated. 2. Should the CEO Approve expenses which are deemed “ personal” will be terminated. 3. Meetings should be held at city hall during work hours to avoid unnecessary expenses. 4. The city is not responsible for reimbursement of alcoholic beverages at any time. 4. Detailed receipts must be submitted with expense reports. 5 . Stealing public funds is a crime, regardless of your intentions to reimburse the amount. 6. Should an investigation be required, that person being investigated will be responsible for the cost. Not the taxpayers.

Get the people who eat there to volunteer for food stamps. It also gives them an opportunity to gain employable skills and work reference along with a sense of accomplishment. While we are on the subject, with regards to Dennis Chippa. If you really knew him, you would not criticize him. He’s done more than enough for that population including numerous unpaid hours during his own free time. He does not deserve the unkind words said about him and the nasty rumours. He’s also taking a pay cut, how many people would actually do that!!!

Seriously! Because parents complained that if my kid can’t have their phone then teachers shouldn’t be allowed. There are more emergency situations in schools than ever. Not a goof time to make such a stupid decision. There will have to be landlines installed in classes, bathrooms, hallways, school yard. Give your head a shake.

Let me get this straight. We are in a deficit of 3.6 billion dollars. Keep your $200 cheques and put 3 billion towards the deficit. This makes no sense to me. If anything help the homeless people out. Help the food banks etc.

That is so generous. I guess our seniors are not worth as much as the Kricket players? $250,000 to be divided amongst 3 nursing homes while over 1 million dollars will be spent on a Kricket facility. What is wrong with this picture?!!

And rightly so. If Peter was concerned about embarrassing his grandchildren. He should have stepped down. Obviously, he did not care.

Chris Maine. Give your head a shake. You can’t compare stealing 16,000 on tax payers money to what Sarah did. Who are you kidding? She got 90 days for a post that embarrassed the council members. How about mayor who has embarrassed the citizens of North Bay. We all understood, he is your friend. I am sure you are doing the same with your corporate card. Zero integrity. All of this just makes us angrier. Waste of time.
