Your City Hall is quiet. Too quiet. What's up?

Your City Hall's been mighty quiet, eh?

Hey there, Regina. Darlene Chicken-Lawson here, still 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.

Well, if you've been tuning in this week, you know it's been a little quieter down at City Hall than usual. Usually, I'd have a whole list of things to tell you about — tenders, committees, all that good stuff that keeps our city humming along, *iyiniw pimâtisiwin*. But nope, this week? It's been mostly tumbleweeds blowing through the open data portal, eh?

### What we *did* talk about

* The wind, oh for sure, the wind. It's been a real prairie special.

* Getting ready for some serious weather. Your windshield's probably seen better days.

* The general quietude of City Hall. Not a lot of new civic data coming our way.

It's been one of those weeks where you just gotta look out your window, see the gales off Wascana, and think, "Yep, that's Regina." Not much else to report from the civic side of things.

Darlene Chicken-Lawson, for the Morning Wire.

You can always catch more on mornings.live.

Now he's applying that infrastructure thinking to local news. Read our story →
