Wynne Late to Candidate Tire Kicking Visit & Social Media Police Visits in Cornwall 031618
Cornwall Ontario – One gets the feeling that Eastern Ontario isn’t Premier Kathleen Wynne’s favorite part of Ontario. When first running for the leadership of the party she was late to an event in SD&G, and yesterday she was late to make an appearance at a local eatery part owned by a Liberal riding nom… Continue reading Wynne Late to Candidate Tire Kicking Visit & Social Media Police Visits in Cornwall 031618
Cornwall Manigats the Seaway Silly Food & Beer Festival Because of Petty Politics by Jamie Gilcig 30318
Cornwall Ontario – After living here in the River City for fourteen years I still get mystified at the tragic load of cow poop that some perpetrate on the public? Sadly because of a culture of exclusion and bullying, I call it the “Ed Lumley” factor, it leads to the demise of potentially good ideas… Continue reading Cornwall Manigats the Seaway Silly Food & Beer Festival Because of Petty Politics by Jamie Gilcig 30318
Cornwall Ontario Refuses Free Bus Passes to NAV CAN Refugees 082317
CORNWALL ONTARIO – Elaine Macdonald should not be on Cornwall City Council. The President of the Labour Council has been in conflict on more than one occasion. She’s petty, ignorant at times, and corrupt. But like all people we all have our good and bad sides. She championed a very very smart play… Continue reading Cornwall Ontario Refuses Free Bus Passes to NAV CAN Refugees 082317

Mother Nature Doesn’t Like Justin Towndale & Seaway Beer Fest JUNE 25, 2017
Cornwall Ontario – Karma can be ugly sometimes. I’ve always written and said that you get more when you’re a small part of something good rather than be Justin Towndale and the rest of the people running the Seaway Food and Beer fest. Playing petty,ignorant, politics usually get you thunderstorms and rain. It’s a… Continue reading Mother Nature Doesn’t Like Justin Towndale & Seaway Beer Fest JUNE 25, 2017
Paying it Forward & Why Good Deeds Are Important – by Jamie Gilcig MAY 23, 2017
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 in a much bigger pond. He’s… Continue reading Paying it Forward & Why Good Deeds Are Important – by Jamie Gilcig MAY 23, 2017
David Reevely Responds to Team Cornwall Disconnect by Jamie Gilcig DEC 22, 2016
Cornwall Ontario – Some Cornwallites can be hyper sensitive about any discussion of the reality of our community. They don’t want to look at failures or miscues, but instead simply raise taxes and hope the issues go away, or simply bully those who point out that our many wannabee emperors are in fact wearing… Continue reading David Reevely Responds to Team Cornwall Disconnect by Jamie Gilcig DEC 22, 2016
Have Local Liberals Taken Over the Glens by Jamie Gilcig APRIL 6, 2016
Cornwall is one of the oddest communities I’ve ever lived in and I’ve lived in a few. The political corruption fingers through everything from City Hall, to charities, and even our SD&G Highlanders apparently. First you have former MPP Jim Brownell named as Honourary Lt. Colonel. That was a little weird as… Continue reading Have Local Liberals Taken Over the Glens by Jamie Gilcig APRIL 6, 2016
Would You Buy a Car from SD&SG Liberal Candidate Bernadette Clement? By Jamie Gilcig
City Councilor Bernadette Clement looked more blue than red as she finally kicked off her campaign in Morrisburg yesterday.

11th Councilor by Jamie Gilcig – Of Arts & Bike Paths in Cornwall Ontario – FEB 12, 2015
CORNWALL Ontario – Monday night two subjects stood out. Now these were distractions from the bigger mess of our budget which preliminary numbers are looking at a tax increase of over 5% which simply is not acceptable, especially considering the bloating of taxes through eight years of Kilger rule. The first issue I’ll write… Continue reading 11th Councilor by Jamie Gilcig – Of Arts & Bike Paths in Cornwall Ontario – FEB 12, 2015
Federal Liberal Bash In Cornwall Ontario a No Show for Domenic LeBlanc by Jamie Gilcig JAN 22, 2015
CORNWALL Ontario – It was another embarrassing night for the local Federal Liberal riding association under President Jamie Labonte.

Thoughts on Council Raises & Police Checks for Cornwall Ontario Council by Jamie Gilcig – DEC 18, 2014
CORNWALL Ontario – I’m going to pay a rare compliment to our city council. Maybe rare shouldn’t be the term. Because of the weirdness that was the Kilger council of the last term there was very little to compliment our elected officials about. Nearly half of our current council are from that last… Continue reading Thoughts on Council Raises & Police Checks for Cornwall Ontario Council by Jamie Gilcig – DEC 18, 2014
