Is there going to be a pentup rent increase when the province abandons the 3% cap, and how is it estimating actual underlying cost increases for rental property owners.

why are there scooters littered throughout the city?

Removal of fluoride treatment was part of a continent wide fluoride scaremongering by people who should have known better. Its removal hit children the hardest, whose teeth are in high growth and development.

This was predictable . When the city removed fluoridation after decades they were advised the poor of our city would suffer. Precedence had been well established in other cities. The Council of the day should have continued fluoridation and lobbied the Province to defray the expenditure . The city pays for chlorination of the water and other treatment measures so the argument that fluoridation is a health measure that sits with the Province rings hollow to me. For a city constantly fighting poverty issues , taking on the cudgel of this issue seems a no brainer. Another argument against fluoride use is that it can cause harm. Yes , in high doses but not at the dose used in water. Guess what , most compounds we use can cause damage at inappropriate dosing including oxygen. Mayor Reardon : take up the fight . return fluoride to the water.

After going thru signing up it takes you to Maple. I notice you dont mention that in this article. Once I loaded a ton of information 3 times and its out their somewhere. I was told they arent allowed to refer specialist. I require a specialist for a cancer screening. I changes must be made clearer and where all my personal information is. Please get on site and check this out for yourself Mr.Dorman.

832 people is a very small sample size of population size area of over 120,000 people( my guess(

The only way to solve the drug issue is to grant these purveyors of poison M.A.I.D. IF ITS GOOD ENOUGH FOR OUR Vets, its good enough for those trolling the depths of the less fortunate in our society.

I sometimes have to wonder about “traffic calming” , and lord help you if you somehow miss the slowdown needed to provide less than a bracing, possibly vehicle damaging hit. I’m thinking of Douglas Avenue, Churchill Blvd. I wonder when an accident is going to occur myself. Then there are the often pointless “Stop” signs on subdivision roads even when there are no other vehicles in sight. “Slow” doesn’t seem to count these days. Make things either for the cop write-ups, without adding safety for pedestrians?

Why don’t you go to the source of the problem instead of “band-aid” solutions. Why? Lack of policing. With approximately 35 off the job, there is not enough officers on the street. Speeders know there is little chance of being caught. Speed bumps are causing their own problems. Signage is being hid behind branches (Champlain Drive) and with no notice, the bumps are causing damage to vehicles. Policing has become non-effective due to their time required with homeless, mentally challenged people and drug addiction.

Glad t see, almost wonder why not sooner. Food banks have become part of the nutritional landscape since the late 80s, no end in sight?

Part of the problem is while the coverage is quoted as 100%, actual coverage of costs is not 100% This needs to be corrected, as many cannot afford the expense of what is not covered, my previous quote was not 100%, and I have to save for the difference of more than $200. I’m a Senior making $25,000/year

Southern NB is in a serious drought situation and the proposed Lorneville data Centro is not welcome. I have yet to hear how the owners are going to handle the forever toxic chemicals flushed regularly from the centre. I strongly oppose building a project that takes from our community,

Maybe we should look at Manitoba’s take on these massive AI centres….
