Yep, that's what happens when you have a buncha underpaid Boomers taking crap wages to do a bad job. City of H corporate culture is anti-talent and too many white collar unions keeping young people FAR away from public service. It's a shame because there's tons of talent here at McMaster and Mohawk but they leave after graduation. Same as it ever was.
The City of Hamilton was grossly incompetent in this, but what else is new. We have astronomical property taxes, and yet all we get is bloated bureaucracy, shitty service, and mass surveillance in the form of cash-grab speed cams.
People are two-wheelin' it at 90 around the corner taking out McMaster students like they're bowling. Hamitlton drivers have normalized some insanely dangerous driving. Leave the GTHA for a month, it's clear Hamilton is dangerous.
I have traveled extensively, and no, Hamilton is not particularly dangerous for a city its size. Neither is the rest of the GTA.
I'd be fine with traps to catch stunt driving, but cash grabs scamming people for going 50 in a 40 zone is petty nonsense.
Drivers in Hamilton are trying to kill pedestrians and other people where those cameras are but drivers act like it's ICE or some shit. I do not get it. Also worked at City of H for several years, we have incompetent CISO because only boomers who need the insurance and retirement will accept their garbage wages. Same with Mayor Horwath phoning it in for a retirement because NDP and Queens Park didn't provide it.
You people are always so dramatic, and quite frankly, it does your cause a disservice. You make intersections and local roads sound like war zones.
There are many unpleasant IT costcutting conversations to have.
They need to spend more not less. Cost cutting is what got them into this mess in the first place. Continuous monitoring and auditing would've had them insurable not like it turned out. What are you smoking?
Sorry if I wasn't clear. The costcutting conversation to be had was "look at what understaffing IT costs us."
