Regina City Hall is too quiet. What are they hiding?

Your City Hall is too quiet for comfort, 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 one of those weeks where City Hall's been quieter than a winter night out on the prairie, eh? Just a little too quiet for comfort, if you ask me. No big announcements, no major policy shifts, just... a lot of hushed hallways down on Victoria Avenue.

### What We Heard (Or Didn't Hear)

The big takeaway this week, folks, is that there wasn't much to take away.

* No new open data has popped up, which is a bit unusual. Makes you wonder what's going on behind those big doors.

* We haven't heard a peep about any upcoming council meetings or decisions that impact our city directly.

* It's like they're all holding their breath, or maybe planning something big that's still under wraps.

We did talk about the weather though, eh? 'Cause that's always a thing here. So bundle up, you know? But otherwise, it's been a week of crickets from our city's centre. Just makes you wonder, *tânisi*? What's the plan?

This is Darlene Chicken-Lawson, for the Morning Wire. And you're still listening, *kinanâskomitin*.
