What do you get for violent road rage under the corrupt #DougFord resulting in a serious injury to a #cyclist? You get a small fine with possible points and insurance consequences reduced to a by-law infraction and a $100 fine. That's all. #onpoli #hamont #cycling

Our streets continue to be unsafe for the people who need to use them, every day, to walk, cycle, and roll in our city. The death of a crossing guard, a City employee who is here to protect all of us on our roads, is devastating. #HamOnt

One year probation and the Head coach get six month suspension from hockey. Dave Mercanti was the head coach and Greg Williams and Bill Whalen were the assistant coaches who were negligent.
The six abusive players are suspended.

The City of Hamilton has no timeline for fixing its ongoing IT issues.

The fact a municipality the size of Hamilton cannot figure out how to provide a livestream on YouTube is ..... I'm trying to find a word.

Growing into lovely young men these hockey players are.
So disgusting.
Six players from an under-14 AA hockey team in Stoney Creek, Ont., have been placed on probation for two years and warned that any further misconduct could lead to permanent bans, after an investigation found they engaged in repeated bullying and sexual misconduct throughout the 2023–24 season.

I’ve spent some time with JP over the years. Glad to hear he’s finally found a home. When we talk about housing first, this is what it looks like. JP will now have a home from which to rebuild his life. Without it, he wouldn’t have the support he needs. Housing is the only solution. #HamOnt
