- For mayor, I think Peter Panetta and Volker Krumm would be, because they spent a long time helping the community get things done. Peter maybe more so, since I doubt he takes much of a salary (if any). For general members, not too sure. Among former (or current) councilors, I wouldn't say anyone is very left.

Peter probably more, as I doubt he takes much, if any of a salary. For At Large, n - Yeah, I thought of Peter and Volker in that role. It would be nice to try a different vision once, unfortunately people will only vote for whoever has the bigger sign
EN: yes i was thinking of Peter and Volker in that role. it would be good to try out a different vision for once, sadly people will just vote with who has the bigger sign - That's social left, not fiscal.
EN: That's socially left. Not fiscally. - We don't have municipal parties. So you have to judge which candidates align with your values based on their platforms. It's still early in the election for any of them. But it will ramp up soon.

Original title in English:Thunder Bay artists vs. AI — can we actually have this conversation without grabbing the pitchforks?

Post summary:I was on Red River taking 11/17 towards the Arthur exit. Right after I got on, before Oliver, I noticed something moving in the middle of the road less than 30 meters from my truck.
