	Timmins Times, Timmins, ON
		With the Kashechewan water crisis into its second week, Timmins-James Bay MPP Gilles Bisson and federal counterpart, MP Charlie Angus say federal and provincial officials are responsible for long-term systemic negligence towards the community.
		Timmins Times — Approximately 1,900 people are living in a community, which bares a strong resemblance to a third world country, while the provincial and federal governments play political football.
		Angus said federal health and Indian Affairs officials were well aware of the problems plaguing the community and yet, left the situation to fester until an E. Coli outbreak threatened the health of the entire community.

	Hansard Issue: L019A
		But it means that many citizens who live in Timmins or in other communities, like Moosonee or Moose Factory or wherever, are having to get placed very far away from home, somewhere within the district, because there are no beds available in their municipalities.
		For example, if you're a citizen living in the town of Moosonee, Kashechewan, Fort Albany, Timmins or wherever it might be, it doesn't necessarily mean that because a district has enough beds, we're going to be able to get a bed for you in your home community.
		So on behalf of Fern, Angie and all of the family, I call on this government to make sure that we adequately fund the services in the community care access centres so people like Fern can live with some dignity and don't have to be institutionalized before their time.

	Up-to-date
		Labour Critic Peter Kormos and Timmins-James Bay MPP Gilles Bisson, who championed the pension protection issue, said their negotiations helped to achieve all-party consent for scrapping the controversial sections of Bill 198 in the legislature late this afternoon.
		The proposed legislation, buried deep in the government's budget bill and strongly opposed by New Democrats, pensioners, workers and their unions, would have given employers a near unfettered right to take pension contribution holidays and grab surplus funds from wound-up or partially wound-up pension plans.
		The NDP, labour and seniors' groups can rightfully claim credit for having contentious provisions removed from an Ontario government bill that would have allowed employers to grab workers' pension surpluses.

		Even if the populations of the two electoral districts based in Thunder Bay were equalized, the resulting number for both electoral districts would still be lower than that of Kenora–Rainy River and all three would then have to be considered as having "extraordinary circumstances".
		Reverting back to the original proposal would also be against the wishes of the Mayor of Atikokan, who at the public hearing in Thunder Bay expressed the view that the Atikokan area should not be attached to Kenora–Rainy River.
		Wood did not submit any proposal specifying exactly where he thought the northern boundary of a reconfigured electoral district of Nipissing should be, nor in the text of his official objection did he specify in which electoral district the Tri-Town area should be located.

		And that same voter in Timmins-James Bay might not care as much about "winnability" as about whether the candidate actually visited the riding and shook his hand.
		The candidates are all busily selling memberships now, and among their targets are single-issue voters—for example, people who strongly favour public subsidies for private religious schools.
		If the poll is accurate, the Liberals have essentially two choices: go back to the drawing board and make McGuinty over once again, or downplay their leader and run as a competent team.
