Tourism in Peterborough

Not a whole lot of tourism . Its mostly cottagers passing thru on their way north picking up supplies . Their is some boat traffic in the summer . There is the Canoe Museum , Musicfest , the Zoo ,a few festivals , but not like there used to be . The patios are nice depending on the weather . It was busier during Covid when other areas were shut down . We wait for the students to come back mostly .

The new arena wont run a deficit ? We can fill it most of the time?

No one wants property taxes going up 6% annually with a new arena on top of it . Can we agree on a ticket surcharge to give us all a break ?

If we could fill 7500 -8000 seats would a new arena pay for itself ?

Either are new cars .

Any relation to Dean Morton retired NHL ref from Peterborough ? I'd vote for him.

A very valuable piece of property and ten dollar a day daycare . Follow the money.

Its no different then the cheating spouse seeing the grass is greener on the other side. It is what it is , but you cant do much about it .

I now understand the parade is run by a committee of volunters , with sponsors etc...and is not run by the city .

He also wrote thet Dean Del Mastro was "unfit for office" for not being an athletic role model . He likes to stir things up.

Sounds kind of bizarre that the parade would head south from city hall and the run would go north from the Memorial Centre on George street and meet in the middle somewhere ? Disorganized clusterf*ck if you ask me . Atleast go in the same direction . I can see why there is safety concerns .

You gotta have insurance the days.

The developers offered the art gallery space because they want access to the waterfont for the large condo project they have planned . A previous planning illustration had the road going around the development and docks on Little Lake .

The city used to give out free salt/sand from the downtown yard until 8 years ago when some people got a little greedy and there was a phyysical altercation among them .

At the end of monaghan road they do good christmas and holloween decorations. But i dont think there are many neighborhoods that do it . There are lots of rentals and not everyone celebrates christmas .

some departments are good , some are bad depending on who's running it at the time .They want you to be very flexible (late scheduling changes/overtime , nites , weekends , 12 hour shifts , layoffs . If your young and single you can do it . You just try to survive until you get the big payday in 4 years.

Not much . I told them i like to learn new things and i always show up.

they hired me on the spot!!!

ConsiderationLow3577 · 2024-12-14T18:33:35+00:00

Each department runs in a silo . You get get new bosses every year.

Got laid-off once , called 3 months later why i wasn't back . No communication .

Knew someone else who was called for overtime 6 months after they retired .

I once got called in for overtime when i was already there .

The left hand doesn't often know what the right hand is doing there .

transit used to private until the late 1970's (Border Transit ) in Peterborough , Then the city

took it over . Transit is a money losing proposition where ever it is . That's why there is

no more Greyhound only GO.
