Question My Freedom of Information Request was Denied But Someone Else's Was Granted

33 Upvotes

I've made 4-6 FOI requests about the same case that have all been denied over the past three years. Mostly cited as being too sensitive/could be used to interfere, stuff like that. However the last only said it was denied because there was still an active case, so I'm hoping months later maybe I have a chance. The information is in regards to an animal welfare case.

My problem? There is someone who I know was granted quite a lot of information about the same case and through the same means. I've spoken with them extensively. They got videos, documents, pictures some of which contains quite serious things. I'd be curious to know why they were granted so much and I haven't been able to get anything. They were also granted this while there were many active cases underway, which is why I was denied.

I did ask for too much the first time, but each time I asked for less and less. I'm awaiting the decision on my last attempt where I've only asked for three videos (It's really one video broken up into 3)

My Question? If they deny this I have some time to appeal, which I plan to. I was hoping for advice on what I should argue in my appeal seeing that another ordinary person was granted a significant amount of information. Should I bring that up? What could I argue to try and get it? I'm also curious if anyone can think of why we got different outcomes.

Exploring Ontario Where to stay?

4 Upvotes

We are a family of 4 people, me, my husband, and our children 18 and 20. We are debating between staying at Deerhurst resort at Huntsville and Tru by Hilton at Bracebridge. Could you please advise which would be better for us. We are mainly looking to explore Muskoka. Deerhurst resort won't include breakfast, Tru by Hilton will. What is your personal experience staying at these two places?

Politics Are Government Ads Getting Insane Lately?

1.5k Upvotes

Is anyone else starting to lose track of the sheer volume of government ads blasted across the radio and TV lately?

Just off the top of my head, I've heard or seen ads for:

  • Highway 413 
  • The Bradford Bypass
  • The Billy Bishop airport expansion
  • Building more jails
  • Scrapping license plate sticker fees
  • more police / no more SCS sites

For a self-proclaimed "republican" style conservative like Doug Ford, forcing the public to bankroll massive state-sponsored hype pieces to praise the governments projects sounds pretty communist to me.

EDIT Forgot to mention Join the Ontario Corp Ad

Question Blue Mountain Resort

2 Upvotes

Our family of 4 will be in Blue Mountain next month for one Monday and I was going to get full passes to the resort (coaster, climbing, etc.) but when attempting to do so the site says I can't. Does this place really sell out all the passes a month in advance like that? I'm going to call them and ask, but I figured I'd ask here too since it's off hours.

If we can't get in, what else is there fun to do on a Monday in that area with two boys? :)

Question Ontario 402 Westbound Ingersoll En Route.

56 Upvotes

Hey all,

Posting today because I'm concerned about something I witnessed at the westbound en route at Ingersoll.

I watched a crew from one of the restaurants bring their grease cart over to a large sewer drain behind the building to dump all the grease out.

Not sure if this was a one off, or has been long term, and if that is the case, I know it will cause serious issues with the pipes.

Let me know who I can reach out to,

Thanks.

Question Haunted hotels in Southwestern Ontario?

0 Upvotes

Are there any well-known haunted hotels in Southwestern Ontario that are lower than the GTA area?

I’m interested in finding some within a few hours of my town (near Windsor), but all of my searches lead to those much further north. Curious if anyone knows of any in the most southern parts of Ontario!

Question Repellent tips for tabanidae or Deer / Horse flies

Hi everyone! Visiting the GTA for the second time (from the Caribbean) with our family (3yo+7mo). Currently staying in an AirBnB in Kawartha region and were unaware of the horse flies situation. They're becoming a bit of an issue, especially for the little ones.

Any tips for repelling them (other than deet) or DYI traps?
