I still cannot put all this downtown real estate stuff together and I would think that many of my readers are having difficulties too. I used to know a few real estate developers in my past life. They needed to have big dollars behind them and had to have nerves of steel to carry out [...]
Who is next to use the Windsor Management revolving door? Wait a minute, haven’t we seen this scene played out before? Is it summer rerun time already given these warm winter temperatures? To me, the ouster of the recently hired Auditor General, Todd Langlois, is very similar to what I understand happened to John Middleton. Remember, he was the [...]
You won’t believe it. I turned around and there were even more stories for me to talk to you about. THE GOVERNERD’S PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN MOVES TO DC I know that no one believes me but you will see: “Snyder in D.C. next week for jobs hearing (David Shepardson Detroit News January 25, 2012) Washington— Michigan [...]
Make Sense Out Of these Facts I am going to make you work again dear reader. There has to be some logic to all of this but for the life of me, I am having trouble figuring it out. The way our major land deals are being handled and whether they meet City rules is [...]
I have heard from a number of readers whose OHIP horror stories make me sick! The system is designed, as far as I am concerned, to discourage not help people.

Not only are they still continuing but recent events have confirmed another major health issue in the City of Windsor that our local Medical Health Officer and the Ministry of the Environment should be checking immediately. It really is that serious. You remember what the DJW condition is: DROP-JAW WINDSORITIS Its symptoms include: • a [...]
Do you have the faintest idea what’s going on in the lawsuit involving the Bridge Company and MDOT over the Gateway project? Personally, I barely do. You know the case. It’s the one where Judge Edwards put Matty Moroun and Dan Stamper (twice) in jail for Contempt. It’s the one where MDOT is now finally bridging the gap in the ramp even though [...]
Yes, these stories are unbelievable. You can read them all in one place, all at one time. Dwight-Lite Slams Duncan and Piruzza Over Hum/Vibrations Inaction Oh my Lord. Councillor Dwight-Lite has just committed political suicide in public. He has ended his political career in the Liberal Party, if he actually had one, by taking a vicious [...]
If you are a Windsor Star reader, then you probably do not understand a lot about the “Gap of the Ramp” issue that has become a major controversy in the Ambassador Bridge Company/MDOT continuing dispute. When you read comments such as those written in the Dave Battagello story on January 31, 2012, then you are missing some background: “A new ramp for trucks exiting the Ambassador Bridge in [...]
