The City of Cornwall would like to provide an update on legal matters surrounding the storage tanks site operated by Trillium Distribution Cornwall Inc. in the Cornwall Port area. On December 9, 2013, City Council passed an Interim Control By-law to prohibit development on the storage tanks site. In addition,Continue Reading
CFN chatted with Cornwall City Councilor Maurice Dupelle over the Chem Tank scandal and cover up that has leaked its way into the Federal election as Councilor Bernadette Clement is running for Justin Trudeau’s Liberals. While many media and politicos are targeting Lauzon the cover up clearly was by theContinue Reading
With the reinforcement of the City Council that SD&SG Federal Liberal Candidate Bernadette Clement was a key part of covering up the Chem Tank contract from the public can Justin Trudeau afford a potential scandal? Clearly City Hall knew about the Chem Tanks nearly a year before they were constructedContinue Reading
When CFN started to write about the Chem tanks and then expose former Mayor Kilger and his team at Economic Development team, and CAO for lying to the public about the chem tanks I personally was abused by certain members of the public and other media. (LINK TO ALL CFNContinue Reading
Greetings: I would like to set the record straight regarding the chemical tanks on our waterfront. The federal government bullied the city of Cornwall and shoved that deal down our throats. At one point Councillor Rivette had even suggested calling in the army to stop them and now he isContinue Reading
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
Greetings MP Lauzon: Further to my email to you last week, take notice that I am still waiting to hear from you, when will the chemical tank farm be removed from our waterfront? Construction at the site continued all weekend despite city issued “Stop Work Orders” and continued widespread publicContinue Reading
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 – City Hall here in Cornwall just issued a release stating that Trillium Distributing Cornwall Inc. is going to halt for a month while ongoing talks continue. Frankly that’s frightening. The Mayor and Council have still refused why Economic Development knew about the project starting in FebruaryContinue 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
CORNWALL Ontario – The buzz around City Hall via the Chem Tanks is that shortly Economic Development head Mark Boileau will be shifted out into Stephen Alexander’s gig, and that Bob “Vienna Sausage” Peters will take over the department. Now of course this is rumour and speculation; but it sadlyContinue Reading
CORNWALL Ontario – Humility can be a great lesson. What we are learning today as Transport Canada and the Federal government allowed Trillium Distribution Cornwall Inc. to pour concrete and finish their Chemical tanks on our waterfront is that when you don’t work together you lose. In this caseContinue Reading
CORNWALL Ontario – The Chemical tanks on the former Kaneb Oil tank site issue is heating up again. Some of the questions I get in conversation is what I would have done if I had been mayor or on council in regards to the tanks as much of theContinue Reading
CORNWALL Ontario – Holy Gilles Latour surprise surprise, Trillium Distribution Cornwall Inc. filed an appeal of Cornwall’s hastily put together by law. They of course waited until the very last day thus dragging things down and I gather hoping that the waters, or chemicals, would cool? This will lead toContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – The Service Club Council of Cornwall and the District is getting involved in the No Tanks issue. The club which represents such groups as The Knights of Columbus, The Kinsmen & Kinettes, Catholic Women’s League, Royal Canadian Legion, Cornwall Lions club, Cornwall Optimist club, RCAF Wing,Continue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – It’s really weird covering a story when you’re in the story. As many of our viewers know I’m an activist at heart. Beaver Gate; defeating Wal-Mart over the First Student Drivers Survivor Weekend, finding lost dogs and people… So when I discovered and started toContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – There’s a rally Saturday January 18, 2014 at 2 PM. It’s to repeat the message to those that make the decisions that we the people of Cornwall want NO TANKS on the former Kaneb Oil Tank property. But this is more than that. ThisContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – Tonight, at 7 p.m, Cornwall’s city council held a special meeting pertaining to the health and safety of all the city’s residence. The issue being, the two tanks planned to contain calcium chloride. This all originally started because Transport Canada leased Federal lands to Trillium Distribution. ThereContinue Reading
