Letter to the Editors: When are decisions reversed?

About a year ago, Peterborough City Council went ahead with a by-law which changed how and when park space could be used. There was limited consultation when the by-law was passed.  At the time, homeless people camping in Victoria Park and Confederation Square felt left out.  This past weekend there was outrage from the Downtown Business Improvement Area (DBIA) when the City of Peterborough Council voted to close George Street for the entire weekend to help improve social distancing around patios in the downtown due to COVID-19. While there is less traffic, or should be, it would be a perfect time to expand space for pedestrians. In addition, Peterborough declared a climate emergency last September so more space for active transportation should be welcomed even if temporary. George Street is regularly closed for festivals, events and demonstrations so it is nothing new to close it. These two cases might show that when businesses complain, change to policy or laws are likely to happen, but when homeless folks complain, does anything happen? In addition, consultation is critical before items are passed at City Council.  At a time when demands for tackling racial inequality are growing across the world including in Canada, it is time to evaluate who the City of Peterborough listens to and when changes to laws or policy are made.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

"Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system."
