This another case of complete and udder empire building by some self important mucky mucks thinking they deserve the power they have. This shouldn't even be an issue. It clearly should be beside the hospital and everyone can see it! I am sick and bloody tired of common sense losing out because someone doesn't want to give up their power. Disgusting.

Maybe the city should take over ambulance services in the city and the KDSB look out for the outskirts of the city. Our fire dept shows up at all ambulance assist so the city might as well make some money out of the service, cause the city is doing it at a cost thats probably not budgeted for.

Traffic is usually tied up on Railway due to trains by Pro Auto Glass and Round Lake. The detour due to trains would be ridiculous. How about using the (soon to be) old firehall on Second St. There . . . I just saved the city $50,000 on a consultant.

I'm okay with it, as long as I don't have my heart attack in Keewatin on a busy summer Friday afternoon.

Whats the big deal? We're building a new fire hall. Put in extra stalls for parking and get over it already.

What about the soon to be vacated fire department building? You're right on the main highway and retrofitting this building wouldn't appear at first thought to be as expensive as building brand new.

Hey I have a piece of property in Keewatin they could use would be happy to sell. it would be great to have the station in west Kenora. See I am getting over it.

They better check the soil for contamination as a long time ago that was a dumping ground for contaminates like oils, diesel fuel and the old roundhouse, They could end up opening up a big problem with the contaminates going into the creek behind Derouard Motors
