Wingham continues to suffer from the negative effects of amalgamation as the three wards fight over capital spending. Blyth theatre gets millions of dollars, while Wingham theatre is missing a fire suppression system.

Our Community continues to suffer the consequences of no standards and a rash of CAOs that blindly side with town staff instead of holding them to account. Our infrastructure rots and crumbles while our CAOs have demanded raises and bonuses for staff. It is clearly obvious that several department heads have failed so massively our […]
Ever wonder why Wingham has the highest tax rate in Ontario? The bulk of the problem is policing costs that are 2X that of OPP. That’s why there is no money to fix potholes, broken storm drains, install a fire suppression system, fix the leaky dam, leaky roofs, etc. etc. Below is taken from the […]
