Mr. Lauzon,       I would like to thank you for doing an outstanding job in representing your riding here in Cornwall.  When we were challenged with what we had initially perceived as a terrible infliction, “Chemical Tanks on our Cornwall Waterfront”  you stepped right in, investigate and quickly andContinue Reading

CORNWALL Ontario – Team Cornwall held its annual AGM.  Team Cornwall President Gilles Latour, who doesn’t reside in Cornwall; but in nearby Long Sault in South Stormont led the way in ….what I’m not sure. Other media headlines stating “Dozen’s Attend Team Cornwall AGM”  are surely not something to beContinue Reading

CORNWALL Ontario – The Free Holder has a new Editor; one Hugo Rodrigues.   He recently wrote about the Chem Tanks.    It’s always interesting reading another perspective; but any perspective has to be clearly based on the facts. Has Mr. Rodrigues, as the Editor of the TC Media ownedContinue Reading

CFN – The circus that has become the Chem Tanks plunked on our waterfront by Trillium Distribution Cornwall Inc. has taken a bizarre turn. Mark A MacDonald who is running for council suggested that Council demand that Guy Lauzon resign. It makes for great filler on a slow news day; butContinue Reading

CORNWALL Ontario –  The little shed that could apparently couldn’t.  After getting some new paint it was hauled away by order via Herb’s Towing.

CORNWALL Ontario – There has been one consistent public message in Cornwall Ontario since December 2013, and that the community wishes to not have chemical tanks on our waterfront and in particular the ones on the Trillium Distribution Inc. site.

CORNWALL Ontario – Unsurprisingly work recommences at the Trillium Distribution Cornwall Inc. site.  Despite rallies, petitions and a clear message to the  politician’s our voices have gone unheeded. At root is Mayor Kilger and Council’s refusal to speak to the issue of the Mayor’s press release which confirmed communication toContinue Reading

CORNWALL Ontario – While Mayor Bob Kilger and his council in Cornwall can spin the current discussions with the Federal Government over the Harbour lands, the bottom line is that council gave a green light with a 8-1 vote (councilor Samson was in Florida again) for the Mayor and ClerkContinue Reading

CORNWALL Ontario – Like something out of the movie Chinatown it looks like the Mayor and some of his team have been caught gerrymandering in the dark with regards to the divestiture of Harbour lands in Cornwall.

CORNWALL Ontario – Cornwall’s waterfront is in play.    The Chem tank situation is the Canary in the Coal mine and now our Mayor is at play with the Federal government.  Akwesasne is involved is well. What should be alarming to the public is that this is all being conductedContinue Reading

The colossal mistake of building chemical storage tanks on our waterfront is a prime example of a city council lacking clear direction, which I must take some responsibility for. We desperately need a city council that can focus on an agenda that will bring some meaningful progress to our city. Resignations, criminalContinue Reading

Are you kidding me, city officials are powerless to stop the construction of the illegal chemical storage tanks that are being built on our waterfront!   This is insane. The company ignores the “Stop Work Order” and they forge ahead with the tank farm. If an ordinary guy ignored anContinue Reading
