November 7, 2023 – There’s stupid, and then there’s Cornwall stupid. As they say, “You get the government you deserve.”. Nobody is owed housing. Or food even. We live in a society where we give lip service to taking care of those who can’t or won’t take care of themselves.Continue Reading
June 12, 2023 – It’s not easy being a media outlet in 2023. If you’re not aligned to an extremist side politically everyone hates you. If you’ve never had to walk back a story even more people hate you as that means you have integrity and ability. CFN is aContinue Reading
June 12, 2023 – You know when your private line starts to ring that a story is starting to explode in the media biz. For over a year now, since CFN broke the story about CPS Chief Spowart’s fat foot resulting into a free pass on Stunt Driving on HighwayContinue Reading
May 9, 2023 – The things you hear about or read on social media. It’s boggling. There’s been a lot over the years so I thought I’d answer a few questions for those that miss a lot of what CFN is. Nobody likes to work for free, and take abuse.Continue Reading
January 19, 2023 – It’s been a scary few years in Ontario when it comes to health care. The system was already strained and corrupted BEFORE Covid. When the virus hit it truly exposed our greatest weaknesses. The lack of care for elders and those that needed Long Term Care.Continue Reading
November 21, 2022 – It’s so hard to write pieces like this. It gives light to some very cretinous people. At my most generous, actions like the storm caused by Ottawa MPP Joel Harden can be passed off for ignorance, but deep down it doesn’t feel that way to me.Continue Reading
November 3, 2022 – The Catholic School board in the Cornwall & SD&G area are giving parents notice that schools will be closed if CUPE goes on Strike Friday. The Ford Government is preemptively triggering the Notwithstanding clause which seems barbaric. At issue is the polarity of both sides. TheContinue Reading
October 27, 2022 – So I went to the Permit Me meeting at Echo Trends in Cornwall last night. It’s a small group who are upset at permit abuse by the City of Cornwall Ontario. Essentially the city abusively enforces Building Codes which leads to heavy cost and time burdenContinue Reading
October 26, 2022 – The first change occurred after the election. CAO Maureen Adams has shifted from bloating Cornwall’s taxes, and moved to SD&G where she will take over for Tim Simpson.

October 25, 2022 – The newsies are buried deep into this inquiry about what happened in Ottawa this Winter when our National Capital was occupied by gangs of thugs and criminals. Ottawa failed to prevent or resolve the issue which may have led to mayor Jim Watson deciding not toContinue Reading
October 25, 2022 – I was asked by many viewers why we didn’t do more coverage about this election. Frankly there wasn’t much to cover. Almost none of those running actually had any real grasp of being in office or how media work. None of the candidates really had solutionsContinue Reading
October 7, 2022 – Not everyone has the resources that ROTHMAR Holdings CEO Aaron Bell does. He hired renowned PR firm Edelman who managed to get CTV to come to Cornwall and help expose just a hint of the mess that lies at a very corrupt City Hall. Rothmar claims:Continue Reading
OCTOBER 5, 2022 – The problem with lawyers is that while the great ones can prove in court that elephants just might be able to fly; in the real world, when the issue is heinous enough, it doesn’t really matter if elephants can indeed fly or not. In this situationContinue Reading
September 15, 2022 – It’s rare for an incumbent, especially an established one with the lineage that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has. Justin is very different than his father. At times it feels like he’s forcing it, being a Trudeau. He’s had a blessed political career that has seenContinue Reading
August 22, 2022 – You know it’s a slow day when the firing of a talking head garners so much media attention. It’s hard to be a journalist in 2022. We media outlets have lost our revenue streams thanks to government deregulation, and essentially strangulation of most media in Canada.Continue Reading
Yes kiddies, that’s where we’re heading. Reading and watching partisan media wogs has been a lot of fun as the leadership evolves. Justin doesn’t seem to be bothered. He just left to Costa Rica for a vacation which is not a politically astute move. Lord knows everyone needs a vacation,Continue Reading
July 27, 2022 – One of the biggest things the Covid-19 Pandemic has done is show how truly weak and messed up our healthcare system is. This isn’t something that can easily be fixed. Money alone will not solve the issues which impact different provinces differently depending on their systems.Continue Reading
