Sault Ste. Marie is at a tipping point.
In this long-form episode, I explore the six critical challenges our city is facing—and how we can turn the tide. From economic fragility to the drug crisis, from government reliance to leadership voids, I offer bold but achievable ideas to help the Sault thrive again.
This isn’t political. It’s personal. And it starts with honesty, unity, and hope.
🔑 What You’ll Learn:Why our population, wages, and workforce are in decline
What’s actually working to reduce drug use (hint: we can borrow from Vancouver and Portugal)
Why government grants and consultants won’t save us
What comparing Sault, ON and Sault, MI reveals about entrepreneurship
Why hope is the greatest growth strategy of all
How leadership (using the CALM model) can unite us around a real plan
