Windsor @lemmy.ca Encephalotrocity @biglemmowski.win 5 speed cameras are coming to Windsor. Here's how to find out where they'll go
City administration said these cameras need to be leased from an approved vendor, which will cost around $1.3 million each year.
Staff expect fines levied under the program will cover its operating costs.
That works out to ~$712 in fines per day per camera. That seems a ridiculous expectation and lease cost tbh.

Windsor @lemmy.ca Encephalotrocity @biglemmowski.win Southwestern Ontario Conservative candidate Mark McKenzie out over 'unacceptable' comments
The development was first reported by CTV News. The broadcaster said it unearthed a 2022 podcast recording where McKenzie expressed support for public hangings and jokingly suggested Justin Trudeau should receive the death penalty.
He was no longer listed as a candidate on the party's website as of Tuesday morning.

Windsor @lemmy.ca GrizzlyBur @lemmy.ca So how are people feeling about the tariffs in Windsor?
I'm really worried about Windsor. Essex county is my home in Canada. Of all of the Canadian cities, we're probably the ones to be most hurt the most from this. I hope we can all come together and help each other overcome this as a community.
PS: Amherstburg has some 1812 cannons that could be put back into working order, but keep it on the down-low so the Yanks don't know. They've been pointed towards the American side for 200 years now, but I think it may soon be time to let them sing again.
