Cornwall Ontario – Oddly enough our fire and police services are refusing to answer basic questions and information to this newspaper. Questions like how many calls for service the police had from last Friday to Sunday. Where other services voluntarily release that to media, our police service, led by ChiefContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – Holy Paul Fitzpatrick! In what seems to be a chapter out of the ol Kilger council, rookie councilor Justin Towndale went public on his social media page with a statement claiming that council was left out of the loop of the Human Rights Tribunal Case ofContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – Are we being misled by city officials and a land developer? Well… at the very least, a “proposed” condominium development on public waterfront and parkland in Cornwall does seem ominously secretive. Is this condo and capital venture, skirting the proper divestiture of Federal Lands, and isContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – After former Waterfront Committee member Bill Parisien distributed a letter calling for an emergency meeting of the waterfront, a group of people came together to form POW Cornwall. The purpose of the group is to have people in Cornwall come together to ensure that our waterfront isContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – Another Canada Day in Cornwall. More social media griping, rain, bad fireworks, crappy bands, Cornwall sucks, blah blah. I get it. It’s time though, that if the public want a better Canada Day festivity to take charge. There’s no reason for a sitting MP toContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – TAG Cornwall, the now closed Public Art Gallery of Cornwall had dusty plans for an Art Centre from 1995. The City of Cornwall of course never moved forward and slashed funding for the Charity to zero for 2015 and 2016 before it closed, instead spending theContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – I normally am for anything that helps the economy of this community, but a recent move to support fireworks sales in Cornwall just makes no sense? One of the biggest runaway areas of our budget in Cornwall are our Fire Services. We have one of the highest rates ofContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – I received an email from a college alumni today. They wanted to use a CFN photo of a certain politician. This numpty financially boycotts this newspaper. His track record is he got elected back home because of his family name after failing at the political game inContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – Holy Patrick Brown! It must have been a slow day for Gay Conservative Cornwall News Blogger Bill Kingston, or as he’s been called, “The Queen of Mean”, as he cobbled together a fascinating take on which SD&G Counties council member spent the most cash. In hisContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – The Counties of SD&G and the City of Cornwall are essentially waving their dirty laundry around as they duke it out in public over their shared services issues. Essentially both councils lack the ability to professionally work together. The County for example, did not send their letterContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – In 2014 I asked if politicians should still be in the closet. Today, in 2017, rising conservative star and North Dundas Mayor Eric Duncan surprised very few people by coming out. He came out on of all places Linked in. He didn’t issue a press release;Continue Reading
Michael’s Right! Let’s Honour Bob Turner! Michael Labelle’s wonderful February 15 letter inspired me to do a little bit more research into Bob Turner, his legacy, and the (typically pathetic) steps that Cornwall’s municipal government has taken to honour the man subsequent to the city’s having torn down theContinue Reading
And here she is folks, Cornwall’s dime-store version of Tony Blair, Daniel Ortega, and Hosni Mubarak. In honour of Elaine MacDonald’s 7 years of treacherous collaboration with the corrupt Trudeau-McGuinty-Wynne Liberal Party establishment and her resulting betrayal of artists, home owners, seniors, taxpayers, workers, and small business owners in CornwallContinue Reading
CORNWALL ONTARIO – More fiscal hemorrhaging at the hands of the O’Shaugnessy government in Cornwall as they issued a press release stating that they mediated a settlement with Shoppers Realty Inc. that saw the MPAC assessment cut by 26%! That’s a hard reality that if spread to more propertiesContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – The last stages of the end of the thirty six year old public art gallery of Cornwall are about to start. The location itself closed in August. The gallery’s permanent art collection; mostly collected during the 90’s in more friendly tax receipt days, will be going to auction.Continue Reading
The deed was done under cover. No public consultation. No real public information delivered. A non nonsensical that jeopardizes the future of the city of Cornwall Ontario. The bad drama started with the Chem Tanks and ended with the release below by the city which actually rezoned the landContinue Reading
Dear Editor, Ever step into the kind of muck that takes hold of your foot — twist and turn, and you’re more stuck, and deeper in? And when you get loose, you’re minus a shoe, or there’s a clod of mud that won’t come off without a mess onContinue Reading
CORNWALL Ontario – David Murphy, the Cornwall City Councilor with the smooth voice and no substance has leaked at Lift Off that his bud, gifted musician Graham Greer, (The Wedgie King of Cornwall!) is about to throw his guitar pick into the ring and take a run for council inContinue Reading
