Where are people still walking this time of year?

10 Upvotes

With the leaves down and the first cold mornings here, I'm curious which trails or walking spots around Thunder Bay folks keep using into late fall and early winter. Anywhere that stays in decent shape once it gets icy, or that's worth seeing before the snow really settles in? Any tips on footing or parking appreciated too.

There has been nothing in the news for awhile with the City manager. Some chatter onsocial media that Mr. Collin is selling his house in Kakabeka. Has anyone seen anything from the city on where he is?

🎬 Anyone up for a film club in TBay?

I'm thinking of starting a small film club where we watch world cinema and art films, then sit together and discuss them.

I can host 4–5 people for now. We can figure out the rest as we go!

If you're into cinema and love talking about films, let me know. 🍿

Your experience with owning an EV in Thunder Bay

14 Upvotes

Do you have an EV? Which one, and why do you like it?
I’m interested in getting an EV, but wondering if it’s worth it as I don’t have a garage, nor the ability to run power to my driveway (therefore cannot get my own charger.. would have to charge at various places in town)
How’s your experience been with it in the winter with range and all that?
Do you have a heat pump, does it make a difference? And if you don’t, how’s that experience?
And, how much do you really save in gas?
Should I stick with an ICE car given my situation?
AND is the EVAP going away in 2027? Is now the time to get an EV?

Thank you

It seems like I can't go anywhere without seeing sloppy AI posters. On social media, on my commute, at events, billboards, even in the newspaper! This is just one example I noticed today. Loblaws makes billions of dollars...

Is creativity at an all-time low? Canva is free, by the way.

Trevor Giertuga vs Peter Dietrich Debate

21 Upvotes

Peter Diedrich seemed to be one of/the most competent speakers out of the panel and I appreciated him calling out past and present city council stagnation. He came prepared, and challenged Trevor on past city council failings.

Trevor seemed to take those matters to heart, and was certainly trying to defend the boards and committees related to city council.

I don't think Peter D will win, but it was refreshing to see.

Also, shout out to my boy Wolfgang, who just wanted everyone to be mayor of Thunder Bay, and reminded Trevor that he went to jail/had lived experience.

Property tax is back ass backwards. Can someone make it make sense?

26 Upvotes

I keep thinking about how property tax works here and how dumb it is. If I fix up my house, put on an addition or finish a basement, my assessment goes up and I pay more every year after. Even adding a big enough shed, MPAC wants to ding me more. Meanwhile, if someone owns an empty lot or a boarded-up building downtown and does nothing with it, they pay a lot less, even though that lot sits on the same roads and gets the same city services we all pay for.

The system charges you more for making things better and less for letting them sit. Doesn’t that do the opposite of what we want? Buildings sit vacant while anything that gets improved gets taxed more.

Make it make sense...

It's a bit late but is there a mayoral candidate willing to tackle this??

Rename a prominent Tbay street with Indigenous name

Post image
7 Upvotes

wonderful suggestion from Melanie Pilon (Mayor of Wawa) during the ONWA Thunder Bay Indigenous Forum for Mayoral Candidates [timestamp 2:08:00] to rename a Tbay street with an Indigenous name.

i imagine the renaming of Water Street to bring awareness to the need for protection of our waterways and beautiful Lake Superior, with Elder Sheila De Corte, the Water Walkers, and Sisters of Turtle Island drum group sharing ceremony, story, and song along the waterfront on World Water Day, Mar 22, 2027.

that's the spirit of community reconciliation and environmental stewardship i want to see more of in our city.

those who live or work around the marina can attest since the temporary village has gone up the encampment at the waterfront seems to have doubled in size, it looks more apocalyptic everyday.

probably a coincidence but seems like the village is a failure so far?
