Cornwall Ontario – I get a lot of content inboxed. All the political parties try to end around and massage story points, but today’s from Patrick Brown kinda takes the cake. I’ve decided to write this open letter to Mr. Brown and if Patrick wishes he can by all means comment or send a statement […]
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; at least we didn’t get […]
Patrick Burger, Guy Lauzon, Bernadette Clement, Elaine Kennedy CFN- It was a feisty debate at the Civic Complex last night. Three of the four candidates were ready for battle and battle they did. The Green Party Candidate, Elaine Kennedy, was much more circumspect about the election preferring to talk about the environment and communication in general […]
CFN – It was a great day for the 1st Annual Eastern Ontario Garlic Festival in Cornwall’s Lamoureax Park. You couldn’t have asked for better weather. It was bright and sunny with a cool breeze blowing off the river. While we were setting up at 8 AM you could see the sun reflecting off what […]
Does this image offend you? It should. It does me. Does this one? Can you imagine some drunken idiot putting a picture of someone in the centre of a poppy because they were suspended by Facebook? I know. Insane. When presented this image Bill Maxwell of the Canadian Legion responded appropriately and was quoted […]
CORNWALL Ontario – Mayor Bob Kilger was booed not once, but twice at the opening of the River Kings game in Cornwall Saturday night. Carnival promoter Council Candidate Brock Frost was in full campaign mode as he wheeled out MP Guy Lauzon who prattled about winning the war on Terrorism and MPP Jim McDonell showed […]
(Tom Manley holding Fitzy the Wonder Dachshund!) CFN – Tom Manley is an interesting politician. From his stunning results for the Green Party he shifted to the Liberals in SD&SG. He has been one of the true pillars of the party since his run for MP a few elections ago. Fluently bilingual, […]
I recently picked up the Tax Guide at our local post office, published by our MP Guy Lauzon. Most tax measures in the guide are OK, some implemented by the previous Liberal government, and others adopted by the current Conservative government. Otherwise, the document is a disgusting partisan rag paid by our tax dollars. […]
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 and clearly shared your findings with […]
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 public calls for work to stop. […]
CORNWALL Ontario – Mark A MacDonald likes to throw around the term Occupy or Occupy Cornwall. Who can blame him. We all like to have some bad ass street cred; but frankly this gerrymandering about the Chem tanks is creating support for the bad guys. If you believe the spin the entire City of […]
CORNWALL Ontario – There’s a lot of misinformation about myself and CFN out in the community and I thought I’d take this opportunity to clear some of it up. When I first moved here my first job was with our local Habitat for Humanity outlet as their marketing manager. It was a total blast and […]
Friends of Vets in Cornwall are hosting a Spaghetti Dinner Fundraiser! Saturday, April 5th, 2014 Time: 4:30pm opening, 5:00pm speeches, 6:00pm meal served Social and Entertainment after. This fundraiser to financially support our group to cover costs for our next video on Peer to Peer Support Group meetings helping veterans and their families. This new video was made working with […]
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 an Order, he would have been […]
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 the issue is in the hands […]
Cornwall Ontario – While eyes have been focused on the No Tanks protest and the new ugly low level bridge replacing our majestic high level one it looks like a sad prediction may be ringing true. Documents discovered by CFN are triggering questions about the RCAF Wing on Water Street. It’s lease was up last […]
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 to cover the Chem Tanks being […]
Rally from MP Lauzon's Office to City Hall Saturday Jan 17 at 2 PM
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. This is about the future of […]
