Cornwall politics are essentially shameless, corrupt, and frankly the government we collectively deserve. No other issue highlights this better than the BMO farcical art centre hustle. Essentially for over 30 years the city doled out a very very meagre amount of money to sustain the charity that was our Public Art Gallery. Run by fumble […]
Cornwall Ontario – It is always wonderful to see our young people out in the community volunteering to help support their organizations. On the Thanksgiving Saturday, the Army Cadets were ‘tagging ‘ us. Two very charming young girls were located at Giant Tiger, one in uniform. They were both very pleasant and I bought two […]
Cornwall Ontario – Geez there are fire sales and bad deals, and there is the sweetheart deal that the City of Cornwall is giving the Cornwall Colts for some reason? I mean this is worse than a Marc Bergevin trade. At issue is that the city has two facilities that have far too much empty […]
Cornwall Ontario – Another Ottawa season, another focus on team ownership rather than the on ice product. With the team in turmoil and morale low one might miss some of the few bright spots. There are some good young players that will have opportunities they normally might not have in Ottawa this season. Then again, […]
Cornwall Ontario – It’s going to be a sad season in Montreal. Like many others I have no idea why such a legendary team has run itself into the ground. The team just named Shea Weber Captain. Honestly they should be trying to salvage value and be looking to move him. Or then perhaps they […]
Cornwall Ontario – When you start to hear Ed Lauzon sing a song such as ” I Just want To Dance With You”, you can’t help but want to sing along and get up and dance. Ed and two of his sons, Ed. Jr. and Adam recently entertained the tenants and friends of Beek […]
Montreal QC – It didn’t seem like a hard days night for Sir Paul at the sold out Montreal Bell Center last night. The performance by his supporting band was spot on, the lighting, stage effects, cameras and sound were exceptionally well choreographed, and Maca himself in top shape! During the 3 hour long (it […]

Cornwall Ontario – There is a little coin container on the counter at the Burger King Restaurant on Second Street East to collect some money to help with the funding of scholarships and bursaries for financial aid for students at St. Lawrence College.

February will be the tenth anniversary of this newspaper. That’s a long time and a lot of hard work. It’s resulted in over 1 million human pageviews monthly. LINK Sadly, CFN never became the creative fount of positivity I envisioned when I started this venture in February of 2009. You can’t do creative marketing […]
Cornwall Ontario – Oddly enough this will go down as one of Hab GM Marc Bergevin’s best trades. It wasn’t a great trade, and barely was a good trade as the team diminished its asset as it seems bent on doing. Will they be trashing Carey Price and his near untradeable contract next if the […]

Happy Happy Birthday Ethel. . This Procedure Book has been in my trunk for many years. It was given to us as student […]
The Vancouver Canucks are an interesting squad. It seems like they’ve played a lighter game since forever, but the Sedin twins are gone and the team is facing a new era and has yet to truly define itself. This year the squad made some bewildering veteran signings. In the cap age that’s not so bad […]

Cornwall Ontario – The last Vitae Lampada, the yearbook of the Hotel Dieu Hospital School of Nursing, was in 1969, the year the school closed. Luckily I was able to borrow a copy and also a Graduation Exercises program from Terri Hooker, Class of ’69. In the yearbook are a lot of photos of […]
