This is just wonderful. We have a ton of health agencies that try to promote healthier living and her is ou wonderfull administration at City hall trying to encourage a healtheir life style.

They shut down the swap shop on Quinn Street and are now collecting motor oil and various items that were already being collected by others like motor oil had to be collected by those who sold it or direct you to someone that was providing that service.

City Hall just has to show us what great services they are giving but are only duplications provided by others. Get on with managing the affairs of our City if you know how.

Cheers

Healthier option at the CN Center, would be a great option. There is only so much of the pizza one can eat. Will this mean, wraps and subsandwiches instead of just hot dogs, hamburger, and that orange chemical syrup that comes with taco chips.

Actually shutting down the swap shop was a good thing, definitely got rid of the garage sale predator people. The people that really needed it were not getting the swap items because it was being picked over by the resellers.

The Oil thing is good, I don't think they are promoting the collection of used oil, I think they are just rerouting it from going into the dumps.

Overall, since Metro took over the sites, it is a lot cleaner and better staffed with competant people.

GREAT! I wonder if this also includes the Aqatic Centre. A friend had her sons birthday there and the only food items she was allowed to bring was the cake. Other then that, EVERYTHING had to be purchassed from the concession... hot dogs, nachoes or pizza and pops for everyone...

The party was for small children and family. moms trying to loose baby fat, ...

Anyways, she was not even allowed to bring extra healthy snacks as an option for anyone that wanted.

Needless to say I went without.

Great to hear that the city may now regulate these things.

Hooray for the nanny state!

I noticed that lots of people are wearing improper shoes. I think there is an opportunity for the city to encourage proper footwear. A simple way would be to ban those people not wearing proper foot attire from civic facilities.

Time to go lobby City Hall.

;-)

Owl, if this means banning all Crocs from any public places, then I'm all for it.

Tack on a fine for anyone wearing neon pink or green Crocs and we really have a law I can fully support!

Just checking my closest for colours .....

Yup .... that should work for me too ....

Crocs! What can people POSSIBLY be thinking?????????

Crocs rule!
