Further Thoughts on November 26/2018 Walk and Talk from Your Local Realtor Brad SInclair

November 26/2018 Walk and Talk

I was waiting and waiting for some more light to shoot this video but I am thinking it is going to be “grey” all day




More making America Great Again news affecting Oshawa and large surrounding area including Peterborough

Last night around 7 PM Facebook broke out with the news that GM is going to announce the next day that GM will be ceasing operations in 2019 at the Oshawa plant. Oshawa is GM. It would be a crazy thought not to have the two working together. Since last night not much more has been said about the closure other then the company did confirm that it is reorganizing its operation with the closure. So far today politicians have been pointing fingers, employees are reeling and the union heads are pissed off. I have a few thoughts. One, if the plant closes there will be a lot of devastated families in our area. I do hope that over the year before closure a solution can be founded to keep the plant open. We have been down this path before and the plant has survived. Another thought, did we Canadians not give GM a huge bailout in the billions of dollars to keep the plant open in 2008 only to have GM announce the closure 10 years later? I am hoping the powers to be can figure a solution out to continue to keep the thousands of jobs in place and keep our economy rolling.

Selwyn Road going to get some love. What is a Community Cafe?

County Announcement: Peterborough County has initiated a Class Environmental Assessment (EA) Study for the reconstruction of County Road 20 from County Road 18 to County Road 23 (approx. 9.5 km). This study will provide recommendations for staged improvements to the roadway including cross section, intersections, Active Transportation facilities and drainage. The EA will determine if property acquisition is required to implement the project. There is the potential for an interim improvement phase, which will be explored during this study.

A Public Information Centre (PIC) & Community Cafe will be held to help define the study scope and issues:

Date: Thursday, November 29, 2018
PIC Time: 6-9pm (drop-in)
Community Cafe Time: 7-9pm (by registration)

November 20/2018 Walk and Talk -Major route closed tomorrow for a few days -New Selwyn Township trail opens today #roads #bradsinclair #selwyn


Hey everybody , Brad Sinclair here, your local Realtor, solving problems and making things happen in real estate since 2007.  Sit back and relax this video should be only a few minutes long.  


I read a post from Selwyn Township this week and have seen nothing more about it announcing Tomorrow , November 21st, the 4 way stop intersection of Towerhill Road & Fairbairn Street will be CLOSED for 2-3 days. 
Balterre Contracting Ltd. are closing the intersection to facilitate water main installation for the Lily Lake Subdivision

Today will be the Official Opening of the Andrew Trail  at 4:00pm at the trail entrance between 249 & 257 Eastwood Rd.
 This neighbourhood trail has been built on the Andrew Avenue road allowance.This rustic trail provides a wonderful walking path for residents, connecting the subdivisions of Eastwood Road and Patricia Crescent.
 A plaque will be unveiled to celebrate the opening of the trail and to commemorate the 50th year anniversary of a tragic school bus accident that occurred on November 21, 1968 and resulted in the loss of two Eastwood Road residents; Shirley Cunningham (16) and Shelley Riel (17). The Cunningham and Riel families were one of the first residents on Eastwood Road. I do remember my mother told me about this accident. I believe it happened on Lily Lake Road  by Stockdale Rd. I will have to ask her.

That is all I have for you today.

This weekend my daughter and I went to Oshawa for her to play a hockey game. We went to the Legends Centre. What an amazing complex. This community centre had 4 ice pads, Pool facility with lazy river, fitness centre, splash pad. It was an investment in the community. The tournaments and activities that building would bring to the area would be amazing. So here’s the thought I had. The Peterborough Memorial Centre needs to be replaced. The city was talking about doing a double pad as well at Trent. Can we roll this all up into one? Think big here now. Build An OHL arena with a 4 to 6 ice pad complex with a pool and fitness centre. Close down the aging Kinsman and Northcrest arenas. You would be consolidating your staff and costs. Why have Arenas has spread throughout the city?

What is the status of the Peterborough Lakers 2019 season? Has anybody heard? I’m wondering how the new counsel will handle this situation. Will they follow staff directions and ultimately destroyed the Peterborough Lakers as the last council was looking at doing or will they find a solution to fix the floor and have a Laker season. If anybody has any information on what’s going on please feel free to comment or direct message me. I would love to know.

That is all I have for you today.
