North Huron council has sold off 103 building lots (18 acres) with an estimated market value of $10-$20 million. The secret sale price is estimated at $47,000, based on council’s previous backroom deals. That would work out to $456/building lot.

North Huron’s recent sale of 77 acres for $200,000 ($2,597/acre) was during the peak of the real estate bubble, and was in a much more desirable location. Council is expected to have gotten less than the $2,500/acre as in their previous backroom deal, which was during the absolute height of the real estate market.

The next council meeting is 6pm, Tuesday 21 Feb at Wingham Town Hall

The agenda package has been released for Tuesday’s council meeting. In the agenda package only one person mentioned they were opposed to closing the Wingham Complex & Pool. At a previous meeting one other person spoke up, bringing the total to 2 out of 5,000 that want to keep wasting taxpayer money. 

The closing of the facilities in Blyth are being credited for saving Wingham Homecoming. While virtually no one cared about the closing of the pool, arenas, section of Community trail, loss of trailer park and airport and historic Armories, millions of real estate stolen, 20% raise for council and a 20% raise in taxes, the shutting down of the beer tent was too just too far. 

Council has now seen the light and is prepared to cancel all services if necessary to make sure Homecoming 2024 happens, especially Blyth which has taken far more than their fair share from the Wingham Taxpayers. NOTE: The beer tent is Homecoming’s only event anyone thinks of attending. Getting drunk down by the river is what homecoming is, and that will never change. An important part of our heritage that we must preserve at all costs.

North Huron is selling off more land in a backroom deal that was struck on 17Feb. The land was not advertised for sale, listed on MLS, and the Public was not informed. Press & Public Gallery questions are not “allowed” at council meetings, enforced by threat of arrest.

Dozens of Wingham families are losing their homes and life savings due to the extremely high tax rate and pending increase. People simply can’t afford $800-$1,000/month just in property taxes alone. The pending 20% increase is due to council giving away millions of dollars of real estate for pennies on the dollar, and over spending on buddy projects. 

The pending increase has caused property values to plunge in Wingham faster than anywhere else in Canada. Wingham taxpayers have lost tens of millions in equity in their homes due to the gross mismanagement and alleged criminal activity of councillors.

Next council meeting is at 6pm, Tuesday 21Feb @ Wingham Town Hall.

It seems NH council is pulling another real estate scam to further victimize Wingham taxpayers. North Huron council is holding an “emergency” meeting 17Feb at 9am, which is closed to the public.

NOTE: This is after council repeatedly refuses to release the appraisal on the airport lands which sold for pennies on the dollar. This appraisal/“smoking gun” would prove beyond any shadow of a doubt that council did not act in good faith, the taxpayers were robbed of millions of dollars, and proof of a criminal act.

From their agenda:

“A proposed or pending acquisition or disposition of land by the municipality or local board/A position, plan, procedure, criteria or instruction to be applied to any negotiations carried on or to be carried on by or on behalf of the municipality or local board”

Not a single complaint was received by council regarding closing of the facilities in Wingham & Belgrave, according to the agenda package. Up to 4 unique complaints were received for the Blyth Arena. Usership has drastically dropped at all facilities, and continues to do so.

The closing of all facilities is hoped to limit the tax increase to around 20%, enough to fund council’s raise and town staff bonuses/raises. These closures are also required to help pay for new lucrative buddy contracts such as $2,500 per lawn cut for the cemeteries, $75,000/year.

These drastic steps are needed after millions of dollars worth of real estate was stolen from the Wingham taxpayers, and wasting of millions of taxpayer dollars on pointless projects that only benefit council’s cronies.

Next council meeting is 21Feb. Council has previously threatened anyone that asks a question with arrest.

(Wingham, ON) At the 06Feb council meeting, North Huron councillors were flooded with complaints from taxpayers. This is after millions in real estate were stolen from the Wingham Taxpayers, decades of the highest taxes in Canada, a 20% jump in taxes, cessation of most services, and an abject refusal to answer questions, restricting comments, and the new question tax.

Town Hall is still impeding a criminal investigation into the malfeasance regarding the “sale” of Wingham Ward real estate by Blyth & E-W councillors for a fraction of market value, and taking the proceeds for their own ward’s benefit. Several attempts have been made to gain access to the appraisals of the real estate Blyth & E-W forced the Wingham Ward to sell.  Town Hall wants $1,300 in cash before they hand over that public information (appraisals) the taxpayers have already paid for.

Once Town Hall is forced to hand over the appraisals, it will be absolute proof that council did not act in good faith and sold Wingham Ward assets for pennies on the dollar, triggering a 20% jump in taxes and ending of most services.

A small group of taxpayers plans to question council at the 21Feb meeting, 6pm @ Wingham Town Hall. Arrests are more than likely.

All residents of Wingham are strongly advised to shoot video of by-law enforcement officer Nancy Small if she attempts to trespass on their property, or if she continues to falsely claim she has any authority on private property.

Nancy Small is facing allegations of trespass, criminal harassment, attempted theft, extortion, dereliction of duty, & countless Charter Rights violations and therefore is added to the Hall Of Shame

By-law enforcement officer Nancy Small still refuses to hold town staff to account for by-law infractions that put lives and property at risk. Instead she targets and harasses private citizens, while claiming she has more power than a police officer or a judge. 

If you want to help take back our country, you first have to take back your own home and yards. If you can’t stand-up to the overarching bullies at town hall that say you can’t have a chicken, grow a garden, have sign in your window or have more than 4 pets, then there is no hope for you. Just get out of our way.

At last night’s council meeting a victim stood their ground and tried to convey to councilors the devastating effect their corruption, apathy, 20% tax increase and zero accountability has had on our Community.

Council completely ignored the victim, refused to answer her questions or consider her input. Please watch the first 3 minutes of the council meeting to see for yourself. This is how the council tells people to f-off and they are not welcome there. To be fair, questions have been illegal/banned at council meetings for some time now, that’s why we lost all our real estate (airport etc.) and taxes are jumping 20%.

For those that can’t afford to keep their homes, the council is helping set up a shower center for those displaced by their corruption at St. Paul’s Church. While everyone is being stripped of their life savings and dignity, council and senior staff laugh and send their victims to the showers. Don’t worry the Federal government is setting up an express lane for M.A.I.D (Murderer/Medical Assistance In Dying) for those depressed about losing their homes and dignity.

A long lasting feud between the three wards of North Huron (Blyth, East-Wawanosh & Wingham) has recently cost Winghamites their airport, trailer park, and now the Howson Dam. 

Despite Wingham residents and the Wingham Ward Councillors wanting to keep the Dam, Blyth and E-W say no and we can’t. They also are forcing us to “spend” a $1,000,000 removing it, and to jump taxes 20% to help cover the cost.

Most facilities will likely be closed as proposed in the budget, and virtually all services to be outsourced to fund senior staff’s massive compensation package. The pool is scheduled to be closed during July and August, as no one can afford to use the pool anymore after paying Ontario’s highest tax rate.

Winghamites and their Representatives on North Huron council are absolutely powerless to defend what is left of Wingham.

The next council meeting is Monday 16Jan2023, 6pm @ Wingham Town Hall.

Taxes in Wingham, Blyth & East -Wawanosh are set to skyrocket 20% according to North Huron’s draft budget. Taxes on a $490,000 home in Wingham would jump from $10,026 to $12,000+/year. This massive increase is partly due to the council selling millions in real estate for pennies on the dollar, and the missing revenue streams from those properties.

North Huron is considering ceasing and desisting bylaw enforcement on private land, and since the bylaw officer never inspected the Corporation of North Huron’s property or held town staff to account, there is no need for a bylaw enforcement officer. North Huron is therefore considering disbanding the entire bylaw enforcement department to save $72,000/year.
