North Bay · Ontario · Canada
A taxpayer-run watchdog for the City of North Bay. Flag government waste, share ideas that cut costs, or report the pothole, snowbank, or streetlight that never got fixed. Your submission goes straight to the desk that acts on it.
Independent · Reader-funded · Not affiliated with the City of North Bay
Every submission is sorted into one of these so the right desk sees it first.
Duplicated contracts, idle rentals, projects that quietly ran over budget. Name the line item; we'll ask who signed off.
You see the fix every day. Share a way to trim the budget without cutting the service people actually rely on.
The pothole on First Avenue, the snowbank burying your driveway, the streetlight out for a month. Tell us where.
Our mission
Governmentwaste.ca collects what residents actually notice and puts it in front of the people who can fix it. We don't run a bureaucracy — we run a watchdog. Every report is read by a real editor, logged, and followed up.
Where reports go
Submissions are emailed to craigdellandrea@gmail.com, the editor who reviews every report before it is published or escalated.
