Someone brought this subject up on a local forum awhile back, of course the narrow minded shot him down. He had some good points though. Does the Oaks really belong in a retirement community? How many of the retiree's use it? How many people from Elliot Lake work there? Is it really a viable source of employment for Elliot Laker's?
Most of the people going through the Oaks are from other cities. There are also a number who decide to stay in Elliot Lake afterwards. The people who are serious about recovery go back to their lives elsewhere, the ones looking for a free ride plant their asses here and live on welfare.
Did you know that upon release from a treatment center you qualify for a start up check from welfare? Yes, $900, plus your first months check of course. No wonder they stay.

Welfare Bums
Where do these people come from? It seems that every few months I see a fresh crop of faces, hanging at the mall, smoking, getting in peoples way, and they're all on welfare.
I thought this was a retirement town? Are all these bums retired on welfare? The town is full of them, where do they come from? I know a lot of people who grew up here, none of the ones I know are on welfare. They have jobs here, and if they don't they move to where they can get work. Many have had to leave, sad, but they did what they had to do.
These other people are a drain on the community, the social workers, the police.

Single Mother Central
I'm having a coffee a Timmie's the other night and over hear a conversation between two young single mothers. They're talking about guys and who wants them, and who they would and wouldn't sleep with, all the partying they do, how great they are, very little mention of the children. They also talk about their workers (Welfare), who's a bitch and who's an asshole, how much they're owed...blah blah blah.
I've got some news for you girls.
1. No guy with anything going for him, and in his right mind wants "you". If one does appear to want you, I can assure you it's only to use you like a blow up doll, that's how you got into the boat you're in now in the first place. A man wanting to use you is not a compliment on your beauty, or how special you are, it's an insult, grow up.
2. Now you have kids, the party is over, grow up.
3. Nobody owes you anything, except for the bum who knocked you up, he owes the kids. Stop sleeping with bums, grow up.
If you must degrade yourself then please pick up some condoms at the health clinic, they're free. Stop bringing innocent kids into the world for welfare to feed.
