Comming from the U K, I can say for sure a roundabout is ludicrous, today in the U K they have had to install traffic lights to control the traffic. Personally a 4 way stop would be a better idea...

Here is the problem, a "Starter Home" does not need to be a four bedroomed 3 bathroom house, but this is what is being built and is thus, generally out of the pocket reach of "New" Families. If this is the idea everyone wants then there will always be a shortage, go back a couple of generations to the houses that were built for returning service men/women from WW2 or the old "prefab" houses that were built in the U K for bombed out people....

So, being in the "Opposition Party" he is not supposed to oppose the things the Government is doing. So those who say he is being "Negative and Attacking" government policy, is this not what the "Opposition" is supposed to do, especially when that government policy is hurting the people of the country, they are supposed to be caring for?? If you can really say you are better off today, than you were 10 years ago, then continue to vote the way you do, nothing will change your mind!!!!

Great, unless you remember history, a man waving a piece of paper, after talking with another bully, unless you are too young and didn't study history at school!!!

Do you consider Russia to be an enemy?

If only... read the history of the country... Ukraine was part of the USSR, until a few years ago, and European peoples (especially eastern) have long memories, both good and bad. Stalin starved to death a lot of the Ukraine people, and then many Ukraines fought for the Nazis against the USSR and Allies. It is very hard to forget all the nastiness, especially when you are neighbours....

230 housing units sounds great, but it is a fair walk across two rather busy roads for anyone to get to a grocery store, and I am not sure where they are going to have much parking area on that piece of land, it being right next to the ravine. Perhaps a better idea would have been to demolish the old King George school and build on that site, where there would be easy access to both Macdonald and Bruce...

What I am about to say is not the politically correct issue. Guns are an inanimate piece of wood/plastic and metal and has to have a human do certain things to make it a weapon. In the U K where guns are not readily available killing by guns amount to 22 last year, however there were 548 killings by other means, nearly half by stabbings. In Canada the majority of murders can be traced to 4 cities, Toronto, Montreal, Calgary and Winnipeg, why this is the case, I do not know, but I am sure the police in those cities have a good idea. Having a gun in rural areas is different and possibly a necessity, having one in a city, that is probably not a necessity. Although being in high crime areas it maybe a good idea...
