YOUR HEADLINE: Is anyone even *there* at City Hall, eh?
Hey there, Regina. Darlene Chicken-Lawson here, on the Morning Wire. This is Regina — yeah, we know what it sounds like, and we've heard your joke. Now sit down and listen.
It's been a real head-scratcher of a week down at City Hall, eh? Usually, you can hear the gears turning, the committees meeting, the general hubbub from all the way down Albert Street. But this past week? Quiet. Like a kôhkom's house after all the grandkids have finally gone home.
Here's what we *didn't* hear much about:
* No big announcements about new projects for our roads or parks. * No lively debates echoing from council chambers. * The city's open data portal has been quieter than a mouse, too.
It's been so quiet, it almost makes you wonder what's going on behind those big doors. Are they cooking up something big, or just enjoying a little pre-spring calm before the storm of construction season? We'll be keeping our ears to the ground, because a silent City Hall can sometimes be more concerning than a noisy one, you know? Oh for sure.
