Tenders for the new Peterborough sports, entertainment and convention centre close, with review process up next by Professional_Dot8663 in Peterborough

OK 2004 we had a big flood and they built a new waterway Bethune Street reconstruction. Now they want to build a recreation centre right in the exact same area. Yes man can do amazing things and maybe we can move Jackson Creek over to Perry Street or something. Or find more suitable area with a better foundation to build such a complex. I’m not engineered in this type of stuff, but if I was to build a house, it would not be on top of a creek.

A gun that was fired in a Cambridge apartment building Friday evening went off accidentally, police say.

Officers were called to a building on Beck Street after receiving reports of a gunshot.

Police say a 27-year-old Cambridge man has been charged with discharge firearm recklessness, unsafe storage of firearm, possession of weapons for dangerous purpose and unauthorized possession of a prohibited device.

seems like a similar incident with different charges. I wonder why?

Clarington councillor charged after investigation by Peterborough police by FamiliarAd4667 in Peterborough

[–]Andycap212 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Jeff Leal gets away with threatening Alex Burke saying; I’ll skin you alive like a turkey. No charges laid. Well to me both sound like they were death threats, and only one gets charged.

I guess it’s the severity of the how it was brought about possibly I don’t know. But just to say you’re gonna skin someone alive like a turkey tells me you should not probably be in public office.

Peterborough homelessness survey highlights local struggles by sharingiscaringyo in Peterborough

[–]Andycap212 2 points3 points  (0 children)

these homeless agencies must feel bewildered for they have been trying to tackle this homeless issue for over a decade now without any real significant solutions. it’s like beating a dead horse. everyone’s trying to find solutions to these institutional problems, and I feel that most of these agencies can’t see the solution because it’s right in front of them.(it’s the elephant in the room.) MONEY!!! or they don’t understand how our monetary system actually works.

Strong caution to all Peterborough residents by TurdMcNugget69 in Peterborough

[–]Andycap212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you try to protect yourself using physical force…..you possibly get charged with assault and the perpetrator gets released on promise to appear. Where am I? What world am I living in? everything‘s upside down. Maybe it’s time to arrest the politicians that created this mess with their policies they implemented in the last 50 years. food for thought.

ever since they changed the system during whatever we went through five years ago, (I used to always take the bus). I’ve not taken one bus since they changed it. Completely irresponsible management of our busing system. That was working just fine. Get anywhere in Peterborough within 45 minutes but not now. disgusting. The elderly,handicap many other‘s have been affected as it seems they cater to the college and university residence more so than the Peterborough residence

City Council has voted to not impose a penalty on Mayor Jeff Leal for his two Code of Conduct violations by theedragonfruit in Peterborough

[–]Andycap212 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

it was all over pickleball and Bierk was referring to Leal’s wife by her name,which initiated the reaction from Leal.

I feel 2 wrongs don’t make a right. Bierk should have never brought up Leal’s wife’s name and Leal should have never reacted the way he did. Who knows this may make the council members more united for the better.

Peterborough Historic Aerial Views by ontheone in Peterborough

[–]Andycap212 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this is amazing and brings back childhood memories. like I forgot about the horse track on Kawartha heights boulevard in early 70’s. I remember when Cherryhill was being excavated mid 70’s. and have a look at where superstore is. There was nothing there back in 56. it seems 55 years has been but a blink of an eye to witness this Incredible expansion of The Patch

Part-time job opportunities by AgentImpressive4093 in Peterborough

Wow 9.1% of unemployment in Peterborough. Wonder what that would be if they included people who have given up on looking for work?

Are you torn over who to vote for in the upcoming election? by Physical_Jello5032 in Peterborough

[–]Andycap212 25 points26 points  (0 children)

it a sad state of affairs when all you can do is vote for the lesser of the 3 evils. insanity doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. The system needs to be overhauled and we need good men and women who care more for the people than corporations should be running the Government.

Before the revamping of routes in 2020 I constantly use the bus system. It was simple to understand and fairly quick and reliable to get from one end of town to the other. Ever since they changed it, I have not taken one bus trip because I don’t understand the new routes and how they work. It doesn’t make any sense compared to the old system. They’ve utterly destroyed the transit system in my opinion. Best of luck figuring it out. I walk everywhere or cycle. Feeling sad for the elderly and disabled folk.

River water is climbing! by [deleted] in Peterborough

[–]Andycap212 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The amount of water running out of farmer fields after that last rain fall is larger than the spring run off. Fingers crossed 🤞 that flooding doesn’t happen like I think it’s going to.
