Peterborough City Council voted to recommend no penalty and seek remedial amendments to the City's Council Code of Conduct after a spirited debate at the June 2nd general committee meeting.
An investigation by Integrity Commissioner Guy Giorno finds that Peterborough Mayor Jeff Leal contravened the City's Council Code of Conduct twice last April, with the report revealing new information about the Mayor's conduct during an April 2nd, 2024 general committee meeting.
Earlier this week Arthur received a press release from a Web3 startup who claim they've invented an AI model that can replace human city councillors. Not knowing what else to do, we've reproduced it here for you to laugh at with us.
Issue 3 arrives just in time for the holidays - when exam stress is at a peak and snow blankets the city making it even less pedestrian friendly than usual. As City Council weighs the relative worth of a human life, they're also faced with student demands for better transit. In the letters section, international students are sick of sexy bingos and demand action while a famous scientist writes about the lack of resources for STEM students in labs and libraries at Trent. Also, the debuts of new columns "Dear David" and "Cinevangelism." All this and more in the December Arthur!
Arthur is sooo back! After a rejuvenating summer sabbatical in the woods, Arthur returns just in time for the school year with more of the hard-hitting community reporting you've come to expect from this small but mighty rag. In Issue 0, you'll find articles by community members about the experiences of graduate students post-graduation, the pitfalls of corporate culture, and why Bata Library isn't so aptly named. You'll also find a veritable cornucopia of book and film reviews. This issue also includes a feature article on the Peterborough Museum and Archives' newest exhibit: "To Honour and Respect: Gifts from Michi Saagiig Women to the Prince of Wales, 1860.”
The City of Peterborough has a Budget! Council adopted the 2024 City Budget during a meeting on December 11th which includes a property tax rate increase of 7% - down from 9.59% in the original draft budget proposed by City Staff.
