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 meansContinue Reading
Cornwall Ontario – What a weird world the internet and social media are molding. Out of the pain, fear, and suffering connected to the terrorist attack in Manchester this week an old nasty hate filled man decided to “steal” some poetic words. It worked too with many praisingContinue Reading
$210,581, nearly $20 per resident of the township, is about how much taxes are going up for South Stormont residents this year, or about 3.8%. Ironically Deputy Mayor Tammy Hart and her puppets fellow elected council, Jim Bancroft, and Donna Primeau, ran on a platform of transparency, accountability, and killing theContinue Reading
When the plan to start the South Stormont News rolled forward it was simple and basic. Help promote the community and offer something that most communities its size don’t have any longer, a local news presence. The South Stormont News was incorporated in Ingleside. A deal was struck forContinue Reading
South Stormont Deputy Mayor Tammy Hart is in legal trouble again after being served with a lawsuit for Abuse of Process after filing a complaint against a local legal representative. Also served were Mrs. Ruth Currier, and Mr. Robert “Bob” Noble. The action stems from a complaint the derangedContinue Reading
CFN – Well that was an interesting and anti-climatic council meeting in Long Sault. The new council under Comrade Tammy Hart decreed to kill advertising on both The South Stormont News and Cornwall Free News. At no point in our service to the township had we had any complaint regardingContinue Reading
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 LegionContinue Reading
CFN is reviewing and rating local candidates this election instead of endorsing. Our next candidates for review are Mary Ann Hug, Greg Kielec, Tammy Hart, Cindy Woods, and Ray Beauregard. I can’t hide the fact that I am a fan of Mary Ann Hug. And no, she’s never advertised withContinue Reading
CFN – I had a chance to finally catch up with South Stormont Mayor Bryan McGillis who is running for a third term. He shared on how in all his years in politics he’s never seen such a dirty election which has included theft of his and other candidatesContinue Reading
CORNWALL Ontario – Yes the municipal election in Cornwall is getting dirtier than Todd Lihou’s sandal clad stink feet. The Freeholder’s Greg Peerenboom nailed Mayor Kilger for using city resources. This would not be the first time that Mayor Kilger is using the excuse that he’s a near illiterate highContinue Reading
CFN – It’s been an even uglier election than the one in Cornwall, this South Stormont Election. Sadly the biggest candidate topic seems to be an advertising contract to the South Stormont News which was the only outlet covering the All Candidates Debate at the Lion’s Club in Bonville. There’sContinue Reading
I am a South Stormont resident, and as I can imagine many received as I did Deputy Mayor Hart’s campaign flier in the mail. I submitted some questions via email about some issues that I had a concern about, and of yet, after two submissions, still no reply, soContinue Reading
CFN – The Seaway News ran the photo on the left in a story about sign defacements in South Stormont Ontario. LINK Defacing signs like this is horrible. The election is a fierce race with sides being drawn due to the Deputy Mayor’s rodeos with Integrity Commissioner Robert SwayzeContinue Reading
CFN – Social media and politics are a strange mix; sort of like Tequila and Gold cards. In today’s age though sometimes what you type can show a lot more than a prudent young politician might want to be displaying. Young Colin Munro of South Glengarry has kicked offContinue Reading
CFN – It was a rare Monday council meeting in South Stormont and I couldn’t be in two places at the same time so SSN editor Reg Coffey covered the event. He and the room were boggled when Deputy Mayor Tammy Hart unleashed a threatening verbal barrage against the SouthContinue Reading
(Debbie & Chris Cameron with sons Brody & Caelan) CFN – Local activist Christopher Cameron has taken the plunge and will be running for Council in South Stormont Ontario. Mr. Cameron was raised in South Stormont, and his family goes back for over 230 years, and were United Empire LoyalistContinue Reading
CFN – For someone that screeches about accountability, transparency, and deep concerns about saving the tax payers of South Stormont money, Deputy Mayor Tammy Hart seems to take the Hypocrite of the Year award as her family farm is gouging taxpayers to the tune of a 100% raise and aContinue Reading
CORNWALL Ontario – Standard Freeholder editor Hugo Rodrigues is a bright man. In addition to being the editor of Cornwall’s oldest newspaper he is also the Director of the Canadian Association of Journalists which many would consider means that he performs to higher standards than say…..Todd Lihou of the SeawayContinue Reading
