I have been watching our federal government ministers and opposition members on the chamber proceedings station and have never felt more embarrassed about our elected representatives. The Speaker has no control over language, gestures, and pure vitriol that comes when a member is recognized to speak. Last week, the official… READ MORE

Thank you for your coverage of the proposal to stop testing well water in the public health labs and close the Kingston Laboratory.

The prehistoric dust collectors that call themselves North Frontenac Council, should vote themselves out. They are anti- business and tourism, and they have insulted the business community once again, by getting rid of the one important staffer at Plevna, and taking a step backwards. I hope Matt lands in a… READ MORE
