A hearty farewell followed by a magnanimous gesture. All Caledonian’s should rise in unison to salute Mayor Thompson’s 20 years of dedicated civic service. His philanthropic acts of kindness are well renowned. Allan has been the mayor of Caledon for the last seven and a half years. Prior to his role as mayor, he was […]
President John Kennedy once said, “ for those to whom much is given, much is required”. Recently, Mayor Tory and Premier Ford have dutifully donned this heavy philosophical mantle. This week`s Solomon-like rhetoric about the greater good taking precedent over the expression of individual sentiments, solicited much public opinion. Realistically these defining statements help establish the […]
A hardy pair of northern ravens have just finished raising a family of 3 in a most bucolic setting over looking the Credit River just north of Inglewood. These sizable and highly intelligent tricksters are relatively recent returnees to the Caledon Hills. Shunned, shot and poisoned by man for their propensity to eat carrion, farm produce and their dark […]

On October 14th, Caledon OPP reported a collision crash between a motorcycle and transport truck. This is not uncommon in the area and something must be done for the safety of the community. In fact, earlier this month a group of volunteers conducted a study observing the intersection of Highway 10 and Olde Base Line. Clearly, […]
Without question the G.T.A. 2021 real estate market has blasted past even the wildest of predictions and expectations. The increase in home prices has left many property owners in a deep quandary regarding selling and buying. The big questions asked are how long can this last? How long will historically low interest rates remain in […]
One of the intangibles benefits of completing over 15,000 rural appraisals is all the tidbits of country folklore that our appraisers have accumulated over the last 25 years. One of these is the consistent but unsubstantiated rumor of big cats living and breeding throughout southwestern Ontario. Something that our inquisitive appraisers collectively thought earned honourable […]
In 1962 Naturalist Rachel Carson penned some of the earliest warnings about the consequences of ubiquitous spraying of herbicides. “The fact that every meal we eat carries its load of chlorinated hydrocarbons is the inevitable consequence of the almost universal spraying or dusting of agricultural crops with these poisons”. Predatory birds like the Osprey, Bald […]
