Editor’s Note: As many of you who read our blotters know we have been asking the Cornwall Police to be more transparent. They have refused and in fact are now refusing to answer basic email queries from CFN. Again, all CFN has asked for is what the SD&G OPP andContinue Reading

The Cornwall police are a financially over bloated and under performing service. There are some great officers there, but it’s leadership frankly…. The Police are now refusing to respond to basic questions from this newspaper. Whether it’s connected to the allegations against Chief Danny Aikman, which we haven’t even publishedContinue Reading

Scores, Lowe’s, and now the Scotia Bank call centre. It’s becoming clear that Cornwall Ontario simply isn’t a place to succeed in business. Normally closures come after Christmas, but there are starting to flood before. A weak employee pool, corrupt and incompetent City Hall, scandals, high electrical rates, and runawayContinue Reading

And this writer agrees that there needs to be a discussion, because of the end of the day there are valid concerns and questions.Continue Reading
This newspaper is generally the only one that will tackle sensitive issues in Cornwall. It’s cost us money, resources, friendships, and even seen myself land in jail on false police charges by a corrupt Police Force that I clearly had not committed.

It’s sad watching the circus that has become the #lavscam scandal. Canadians are getting a rare glimpse, and a sanitized one at that, on the inner workings of government.

Cornwall Ontario – The Cornwall Community Police Service reported an increase from 71 to 91 Sexual Assault charges that were laid in Cornwall in from 2016 to 2017. You can’t blame a lack of resources. The CCPS cost per capita is nearly on par with Toronto and nearly 3Continue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – There’s a certain ignorance and nastiness in Cornwall that’s embodied in people like my former neighbor Randy Sauve. There’s no crime in not being bright or capable of running one’s life without baby bonus. There is when you stalk and rant after people who can create andContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – As CFN reported recently the odd circus that has been the city spending wads of cash to make silly vanity videos of Fire Chief Pierre Voisine. LINK Ms Adams is not answering to the costs of the video, but sources have said that city have spent overContinue Reading
