THE WYNNE GOVERNMENT IS TABLING LEGISLATION THIS AFTERNOON THAT WILL MEAN BACK TO WORK LEGISLATION FOR THOSE STRIKING HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERS IN PEEL, DUFFERIN AND SUDBURY. THEY HAVE DECIDED THE STUDENTS SCHOOL YEAR IS NOW BEING THREATENED. WE WILL SEE HOW THIS PLAYS OUT WITH THE ELEMENTARY TEACHERS ALREADY IN A WORK TO RULE CAMPAIGN.
YOU KNOW LAST WEEK WHEN PEOPLE WERE SETTING OFF FIREWORKS EVERY NIGHT. THAT COULD BE A THING OF THE PAST IF CHATHAM- KENT POLICE SERVICES GET THEIR WAY. THEY WILL GO BEFORE COUNCIL TONIGHT ASKING TO PASS A PUBLIC NUISANCE BYLAW. THIS WOULD EFFECT THINGS LIKE BEING DRUNK IN PUBLIC, LOUD MUSIC, UNLAWFUL BURNING AND YES…FIRE WORKS. THE FINE COULD REACH AS HIGH AS 10 THOUSAND DOLLARS.
IMPROVING TOURISM IN CHATHAM- KENT HAS BECOME A RALLY CRY FOR SEVERAL BUSINESS SECTORS AND TONIGHT WE WILL FIND OUT WHAT THEIR CONSULTANT HAS TO SAY. THE TOURISM EXPERT WILL ADDRESS THE CROWD AT A MEETING AT THE JOHN D. BRADLEY CONVENTION CENTRE IN CHATHAM BEGINNING AT 7;30. LOCAL BUSINESS OWNERS CAN ALSO WEIGH IN. THERE IS ANOTHER SESSION TUESDAY MORNING AT 8 AM. IN DRESDEN.
THIS IS A GREAT IDEA. WE ALL SPEND SO MUCH TIME ON FACE BOOK ANYWAY, THE COMPANY ANNOUNCED TODAY THEY ARE PARTNERING WITH POLICE FORCES ACROSS CANADA AND WILL SOON START SENDING OUT AMBER ALERTS IN THE NEWS FEED. ONLY ALERTS THAT PERTAIN TO YOUR AREA, BUT IT IS A GREAT WAY TO GET THE NEWS OUT IN A HURRY. FACEBOOK PUT THIS INTO EFFECT IN THE U.S. SEVERAL MONTHS AGO.
