its the emerald city from the wizard of ozz , the first thing you see in the funny video is the sign on the bldg. loans... and the downtown will be that empty if they try to build the lrt

wow almost 3 inches of light snow some kind of storm yawn

lets face it you loose again nobody cares wat the spec has to say.... edit all u want nobody will reply if u think your censorship is good for the masses

why should you censor my opinion, if you dont like BAD words to bad were adults not school kids grow up... (Blogger's note: I'm afraid you've got it backwards. This isn't a publicly-owned site.

Merulla is a moron,he wants to spend 20 mil. on a rusted out stadium.. he does get votes from the people who charge for parking on their lawns in his ward...he'd probally get voted out if its torn down and he's affraid of that

brattina was against the reno at city hall, 80 mil.for nothing more then a few data lines and new toilets... at least the money used on the stadium is for the enjoyment of the taxpayer, we dont get any money from the feds or province if its not built.which is taxpayers money as well . so lets just get it rolling.

we have no leaders they are all puppets for big corps.upgrades to sewer and water because of the new subdivisions lots of extra taxes wheres it going? nobody except the councilors of that ward care about the downtown,look at mississauga thats a downtown.poverty send them back to t.o...problem solved

just remember mcstinky (no new taxes) then remember fred and larry when you vote. our taxes went up when the assested value was released so the council can lie and say we didnt raise any taxes,but your house is now worth more sorry nothing we can do.

you got to be kidding me ,women in politics.next you'll have men taking care of kids.

you give THEM one term ,if they fail to perform like that last two you kick their a$$ out..... unfortunately we cant seem to attract any real leaders anymore,including the feds and province...maybe we're raising a bunch of spoiled brats who only think of themselves and think they are gods to be worshipped like ceasar. also lower all their salaries by 30% and drop the 2 term pensions then you'll clean out the garbage

great idea... we could could then vote for other things like where to put the stadium etc. let the councilors know where we want our money to be spent instead of wasting thousands on consultants who know nothing about hamilton

ya more garbage will get di lanni in... the saying goes garbage in garbage out for mayor

Councillor Terry Whitehead and his band of fools should put in their resignations for the fiasco that has happened in the recent stadium site,, young says its too late the cats are finished with hamilton... elections in october, these fools are gone.

who's fred trying to kid , he and his merry band of fools buying up houses before the site was even chosen. the boys downtown must be pssed ,cant sell their contaminated land they bought and have been trying to unload it for tripple the price they paid. i never heard of any debate ,other than the closed door meetings they had. if the west harbour is so great why has no one built anything there in 50 yrs. we had no choice when the counclors spent tens of millions on the boardwalk. pie in the sky visions the lot of them. just remember when the concrete slabs at city hall turn black,who made that decission

its about time the mayor an counilors got a slap. they dont have the smarts or intregrity to run anything aside from their coffee pots(maybe not). they've wasted millions of taxpayers money(gorgepark,fountain,oneway streets)then watch hertitage buildings fall one by one as speculators default on taxes.... can't wait for the election. looks like fred and his gang of fools wont get thier names etched on the new stadium. they did get flowers on the boulavards ,i knew they were gardeners. .

festival of friends,just watch out for the parking police,they gave out thousands of tickets at the last gagepark event. get ready for more... same will happen at the west harbour site if council gets gets thier way

lets face it ,all of burlington street is a toxic wasteland. industries have dumped millions of gallons of goo for the last 75 yrs. slowly closed shop and left for greener fields. firestone,procter and gamble.,westinghouse etc. just cover it with concrete and be done with it.

the stadium debate has made a laffin stock to outsiders of hamilton. with all the money spent on Consultants,council should have had a city wide vote for the location, if we the taxpayers are paying we should choose the site. this last minute decision is just like what happened to the reno at city hall and redhill, no imput from taxpayers . we pay they for scru ups the mayor and councilors make ,they get tossed out at election time, its starts all over. seems like everyone at city hall thinks they are demigods and to hell what the peasants want. keep votin these morons out till they get the message. just like mcstinky and cretin, no new taxes (sorry we lied),

quote from eizenburger People would expect we would be very careful with taxpayers’ money he cant be serious with that sentence,,, the councilors have wasted millions on pet projects since being elected,now he's trying to do the best they can to save us taxpayers,who is he kidding? 80 mil. for the city hall when 40 mil. will have done. but their budget was 80 mil. so be damned and spend it it all. now he's trying to grow a backbone to late your out. if theres no parking at the harbour its a waste. in the 1900's ivonwin was built but nobody cared about cars they rode horses.nobody takes buses never will. copp's never revitalized downtown samething with anything down in that hole

the old boys club of hamilton are running the show at city hall.. the councilors and mayor will bend over backwards to please them.. if they say west harbour its that site.. remember the old boys own alot of land that they want to unload on the tax payer and its not on the mountain remember city hall and what happened there

why has it taken this long for the Future Fund board decision to speak up? remember people the Future Fund money was our overpayment to hamilton hydro over the years and when they sold to horizon the councilors decided to keep the money instead of giving us rebates or lowering our taxes.. this Future Fund board should have no bussiness holding back our cash for any improvement,its not their money.. its ours .

wow 30 people showed up. he looks like a real winner.. using eisenburgers Ken Audziss as campaign manager. what a brilliant idea. grassroots approach,who's he kidding. will he be driving his vespa scooter to work. larry go back to your veggie garden and enjoy your golden years

hey wheres my comment whats this censorship

crime isnt down it just shifted to lawers , insurance companies and the government

when the government can spend 1 billion on security for 100 vip's for a week who cares about the amount we get ,its peanuts to the big guys conrad just got a out of jail free card for 100 million in back taxes ,life is great for the kings and queens
