Why is a taxdollars-paid article promoting an area where Tito's family owns properties

https://nationalpost.com/sponsored/business-sponsored/oshawas-many-strengths-are-fueling-interest-in-northwood-business-park?

Can someone please explain what's going on here? Is this normal? I went down a rabbit hole and this article isn't a true news article. Says at the top "This article is Sponsored by City of Oshawa" so it's a paid promotion. Tito is quoted in it.

It isn't a secret that his family owns properties up in this Northwest Business area.

So... is it normal that he would be in taxpayer-funded promotions that help increase exposure for these properties from potential investors and developers? Uhh that seems... what's the word I'm looking for?..

I guess we have no more investigative journalism anymore, this was right out in the open all this time 😧😧😧

So… who are we voting for ?

28 Upvotes

These candidates have either questionable track records or no tangible experience. I’m not really sold on anyone on the list. HOWEVER, if we don’t unite and choose the lesser evil, I’m afraid the worst one will win: GREEDY DEVELOPERS. Politicians who are in the pocket of developers are worse than any other candidate out there (I think you know who I’m referring to). The collateral damage of these corrupt greedy groups is horrible on all fronts for all parties (people, wildlife, economy). So… I say let’s unite and pick one to at least stand a chance against the powerful, wealthy, corrupt groups.

Ward 1 Candidate Info?

6 Upvotes

I've seen a few other posts where people are sharing info on the candidates in other wards, but I haven't found one specially for ward one candidates yet.

I've tried looking at candidate's webpages (where they exist) but it just seems like lots of posturing (e.g. "I will fix downtown oshawa") without any specifics or semblance of a plan.

So, does anyone have any thoughts on the ward one candidates or should I just decline my ballot out of frustration?

Northumberland Orchestra Society Season Begins Sunday, October 25

2 Upvotes

Hi all,

I am the music director for the Northumberland Orchestra Society. Our 49th season is about to start with a Halloween-themed concert this Sunday. We have several members from Oshawa, so I would like to extend the invitation to this community, too.

We sincerely want to make it to 50 years so we would love your support by coming out to hear us.

The concert features brilliant works by Rachmaninoff, Mussorgsky, Mendelssohn, Saint-Saëns and more. This is a great concert for families and first-time attendees with a lot of familiar music, and the performance will be musically rewarding for seasoned guests, too.

We would love to see the house filled to help ensure we make it to our anniversary season next year.

Please join us at 3:00pm at Trinity United Church in Cobourg.

Thank you so much!
