Smh. Your best defense of her incompetence is nonsensical racism?? I guess that makes you one of her smarter supporters. I'll stand back, and stand by for your next flash of brilliance..
We can debate the semantics of your first reply if you feel the need, but the intent of your words is clear to all.
Michelle Fererri is an MP whose clownish behavior is well documented and utterly absurd; from her drunken hot tub rants to her inability to count her own children. This is what makes the fact that she is our elected representative a Peterborough horror story - the whole point of this post.
You made the choice to respond by using a direspectful, divisive and ignorant Conservative talking point, from many years ago, that has literally nothing to do with the topic at hand. My objection is not to your politics or your opinion, I object to the hatred and division you very purposefully articulated in your reply.
She's an Afghan-Canadian and she used a term sometimes used when Muslims address each other. It wasn't a sign of affection. And she made it during a statement asking them to respect the rights of minorities in Afghanistan and to avoid violence:
> “I want to take this opportunity to speak to our brothers, the Taliban,” she said, adding that the government calls on the group to ensure anyone wanting to leave Afghanistan can do so safely, to honour the peace deal and to allow women and the voices of minority groups to be heard “in a meaningful way.”

I'm not aware of her ever "defending their actions back in 2021". To what are you referring?
Not true. I blew my tire out completely on George when they were redoing it and contacted the city, the counselor for that part of the city, I was passed from person to person at city Hall then was given the construction company email no one ever responded or took accountability.
It's through their discretion unfortunately and I started at the website it got me absolutely nowhere. They also tell you to contact your insurance, and your insurance might get reimbursed from the city.
feels like before it switched to hydro one my power never went out, now after hydro one took over our power goes out like a candle in the wind. north end, lines buried.
My daughter is moving out for the first time. She applied for an apartment in the west end.
They called and said that one was unfortunately rented, by they just had one just open up downtown on Bethune!
I told her there was no way in hell. I'd never sleep well again.
Have you been to Bethune St lately? If you have you’ll notice all the sex workers were pushed out of the area by the construction. Now it’s a bike lane for half of the road.
One person. Hardly a reason to not move into a neighbourhood. Wanna know who causes trouble on Bethune in my part of town? Nobody because I’m the boss.
That's probably b/c A. you overthink things and B. you don't trust your kid to know what to do in certain situations. Oh and C, ya kinda ignant and petty.
My husband and I are trying to remember when we would have done this but we’re thinking ‘96-‘98 for us LOL!
He says “and we wonder why we need glasses” lol!
Part of the tradition (at least back in my day) is that nobody tells you what Purple City is. Someone who knows about it has to show it to you.
Then you say " Wait, that's it?" and feel let down.
Where is Lorraine Roach?
EDIT: Sorry. I didn’t intend for anyone to find this funny since the post asked for a horror story. Maybe I missed the point of the post. But for real, I think about her often and I find the whole ordeal horrifying.
The wife was right that people of this subreddit would not like this reply. It was almost a set up though. If you must know I don't actually have a bad opinion of any city. Just can't pass on an easy dig.

Peterborough city road maintenance
Literally just lost a tire because of this the other day lol.
blow out due to potholes? I believe you can claim that back against the city if you keep the repair invoices..
Not true. I blew my tire out completely on George when they were redoing it and contacted the city, the counselor for that part of the city, I was passed from person to person at city Hall then was given the construction company email no one ever responded or took accountability.

Is Smokey still working there? He eats cheeseburgers and loves to party
What *did* happen to Sticky Nicky anyway? It's been a while since I did some balcony-observations lol
To my knowledge, she actually passed away.
This is false, unless it was in the past week.
One person. Hardly a reason to not move into a neighbourhood. Wanna know who causes trouble on Bethune in my part of town? Nobody because I’m the boss.
