I missed this post about the wireless debate when it was first written. Although a savvy reader brought it to my attention a couple of weeks ago, his email got lost in the cascade of email I get - 100 or more a day. When I was cleaning out my cache this morning I found it, and after reading it, thought I should share it because it relates to local...

Barber Glass has gone into receivership. Heard about this on the morning news. The brief story on the EB's website reports:
"On Wednesday, court-appointed receiver Grant Thornton LLP took control of Barber Glass. The company employs around 45 people at its Collingwood plant; it also has a facility in Guelph, where the company's head...

Yes, everyone has them, but not necessarily severe or threatening. Still, it's interesting to see how others view our community in an environmental light.
A new website called emitter.ca shows air quality reports taken at numerous locations around Canada. You can search on any community, but the results are a bit spotty in places and depend...

"If I had run again, would there have been six people running for mayor? Who knows?"
That's what Mayor Carrier told The Enterprise Bulletin, last week, when asked to comment on the results of the municipal election that saw five incumbent councillors lose their seat, all of who had been his supporters during most of his term,...

Where most unseated incumbents took their defeat in stride and wished the successful candidates well, not so Sonny Foley.
In an article in this week's Collingwood Connection, Foley lambastes the public, the mayor-elect, Councillor Edwards, and me. He calls we three returning incumbents, "the three worst councillors," and comments on...

I found a link to the student vote for the municipal elections posted on Facebook today, and the results are interesting - a little disappointing to me, too. Gave me something to think about, too, and about my own name recognition among students and youth.
These results are from the local elementary schools, not the high schools, so there may be...

Not sure if we have the planning and zoning authority that BC has, but this story from the Municipal Information Network has some ideas worth investigating in a local context:
City of North Vancouver Becomes First BC Municipality to Use Density Bonussing to Encourage Green Buildings Across the City
North Vancouver, October 27, 2010 -...

From the Municipal Information News:
Fort McMurray, October 27, 2010 - Wood Buffalo has been named one of Canada's Top Ten Entrepreneurial Cities for 2010, the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo announced on Oct. 21.
Wood Buffalo was ranked in the top ten (#10 overall) according to a study released by the Canadian Federation of...

What a night. What a change! The pundits were right in their predictions that a wave of change was coming, but I don't think many realized it would be this big. Collingwood came out in tsunami-strength force to vote - a record-breaking number just shy of 50 per cent turnout - and firmly repudiated the current administration in favour of...
Only twelve hours left before the polls close in Collingwood and we see how the council changes for 2010-1014. I know the media are predicting a significant sea change - up to five new members of council elected say some. Others in town suggest a complete change of council, a sort of baby-out-with-the-bathwater election that sees seven new members...
