The latest Letters to the Editor stories from Lindsay and the City of Kawartha Lakes.
I fully agree with Dr. Michael Moreton’s letter (Sept. Advocate) regarding the poor bus services from Toronto to Lindsay and as such I have written many letters to GO Transit, TOK Coachlines and to our city council.
I have attended two meet and greets during this election one at the Lindsay Armory and one in Bobcaygeon at the community centre and I have to ask, why aren't we seeing a better turnout at these events?
At election time, candidates provide a number of reasons why you should vote for them.
As summer is winding down I want to express my appreciation to the local Parks and Recreation Division.
We've all heard the line that towns need more growth, but I've never known why.
I really enjoyed the article by Ginny Colling about her encouragement for people to start walking.
PC candidate Laurie Scott sure must love the perks and adventures of life at Queen’s Park.
We moved here recently from the GTA to be closer to our family. I was advised that I might be surprised by high water costs.
Four weeks ago I witnessed my first real protest. A bunch of people in one place, all unified under one goal.
First, I second Judi Forbes’ comment in her December letter in the Advocate when she writes, “Bravo to Barbara Doyle for standing as the NDP candidate for HKLB in the upcoming election.”
I would like to know why a sidewalk has not been slated for the north side of Colborne Street West between Angeline Street and Charles Street in Lindsay, opposite Heritage Christian School.
We are witness to a deplorable worldwide condition that is not lessening.
The sidewalk plows that ordinarily clear snow seemed to be mostly zooming around the roads, driving past uncleared sidewalks.
It used to be that municipal managers who are responsible for local economic growth focused on attracting businesses such as outsourced call centres, back when the number of jobs created was what managers were judged on, instead of the quality of jobs.
Your report on the budget deliberations of the council was very informative. (Cover story, November Advocate.) It should be read by all taxpayers before the next election.
In reading your article on the financial difficulties that the city has, and Mayor Andy Letham’s take on the solution, I would like to hear the opinion of the mayoral candidates for the next municipal elections.
October 19 was a momentous day at city hall. The minutes will record a motion and a recorded vote. But there will be no grounds for the motion, no reasons given as to why it should have passed.
I'm at a loss to understand how and why council voted last week to approve the route through Lindsay.
Your unsigned editorial in the September issue of the The Lindsay Advocate, entitled “We Need Mandatory Vaccinations for Youth in School” was an outrageous promotion of a practice that is, in fact, illegal in Canada.
I would like to take this opportunity to address misinformation and rumours that are circulating in our community. The board of the Lindsay Agricultural Society carefully considered whether it was prudent to proceed with the 2021 Lindsay Exhibition.
With Ontario being very much still in a pandemic and a fourth wave being a threat to us why are we proceeding with a fair in Lindsay this year? There were several car shows, public events, and even the plowing match was canceled this year due to the pandemic so who made the reckless decision to proceed with the fair?
An open letter to Jagmeet Singh, leader of the federal NDP. Dear Mr. Singh, may I make a suggestion about your use of the words "fight for" and "fighting for" during your election campaign?
