We need to stop handing these things out to celebrities. Especially this one. Was he born here? Any affiliation to us at all?

I say we change the locks right away.

hey KISS saved Christmas !!

They should be getting keys to all the cities

[ShepherdsDog]

I can see giving Chaim the keys to the city...one of the world's most famous rockers, but Shannen Doherty ???

$1:

Katz is in Israel, where he attended a conference.

What a coincidence.



No keys for crazy people.

$1:

Women should be in charge. You're much brighter than we are. You should have thousands of babies, and be in charge.

There is a fine line between being enthusiastic and being obnoxious. And ^^^^^ is that line

Giving Gene a key ‘a huge mistake’: Nordman

$1:

Giving Gene Simmons the key to the city was “a big mistake for our city,” the speaker of Winnipeg’s city council said Thursday.

One day after the 61-year-old KISS frontman and reality TV star was handed the key to the city, Coun. Grant Nordman spoke out against the move, revealing that he advised the mayor’s office against it because of Simmons’ unabashed claims of having slept with thousands of women over the years.

“Initially when the press release came out I replied back to the mayor’s office and said ‘Is this a joke?’” Nordman said. “I told them it’s a big mistake for our city.”

Meh, it's a symbolic gesture that in the end means nothing.

[Curtman]

Ottawa gave one to Terry Fox's mother though. Us? Roddy Roddy Piper, Shannen Doherty, and Gene Simmons.

Stop doing it if we give it out for frivolous reasons.

[Dragon-Dancer]

I've always felt the entire idea of giving a key to the city was frivolous, doesn't matter who it's given to. Apparently your mayor just happens to like those people.

Shannen Doherty was from Glen Murray. It would have made more sense for him to give it to



But Terry Fox was born here at least for crying out loud.
