Letters to the Editor


Letter: Number crunching

To the editor: In an article published in Thunder Bay Source Aug. 13, 2010 (Candidates not numerous), city clerk John Hannam says acclamations are rare in Thunder Bay, and that it’s unusual in Ontario for a city of this size to have any acclamations.

Editorial: Act goes too far

The provincial Liberals, it seems, are about the only people in Ontario in favour of Bill 191, the proposed Far North Act.

Letter: You owe $76.79

To the editor: I was reading my father's water bill and I was shocked to see it was just over $100. But the actual volumentric charge for water usage was $10. What? Ten cubic meters of water and the bill is $100.

Letter: feeling ignored

To the editor: Last week’s editorial in Thunder Bay Source laments the lack of declared candidates for the upcoming city elections, but I don't quite understand the writers surprise.

Letter: It’s as bad as it seems

To the editor: I take issue with regards to the letter Coun . Frank Pullia wrote, entitled “How Council Makes Decisions,” (Thunder Bay Source, Aug. 6, 2010). In our entire history, I have never seen a more mismanaged city.

Voluntary census

In 2003 our American friends thought they would experiment with a voluntary census instead of a mandatory one. The result was added expense and less reliable data. This costly blunder was quickly abandoned.

Editorial - City loves the Worlds

Baseball fever has hit Thunder Bay, and hit it hard. Almost as hard as the Cubans and Americans are hitting opposition pitching this week at the World Junior Baseball Championship.

A familiar read

I don’t often do book reviews but on this occasion I will make an exception. I recently picked up a rather lengthy volume (over 700 pages) and I think it is worthy of note.
