THUNDER BAY – Voters in Thunder Bay’s municipal election got a closer look at the five men running to serve as the city’s next mayor during a televised debate on Wednesday.
Policing and public safety Ken Boshcoff said he’d ask the province to grant Thunder Bay “special status” recognizing its role as a regional hub. “Whether we need a new police station or not is something to come once we’ve solved the issues with regard to the police services board,” he added. “But these officers are under fire.”
Housing and homelessness Mack argued while the city largely isn't responsible for housing, health, or social services, the municipal government can and should play a leading role.“They had a mayor who championed the cause of ending homelessness in that city,” Mack said. “He got people together and drove that forward, and spending very little money, they now have zero chronically homeless people in the community. If Medicine Hat can do it, then surely Thunder Bay can do it.
Boshcoff again argued the city must appeal to the provincial and federal governments for more funding to recognize that “we are helping dozens of other communities.”
