Regina City Hall went five days silent. What happened?

Your City Hall sure has been quiet, 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 *tâpwêwin* of a week down at City Hall, eh? For the last five days, the civic data portal has been quieter than a winter night on the prairies. No new information, no updates on projects, just… silence.

Usually, there's always something bubbling up from City Hall, whether it’s new permits, budget amendments, or even just the regular city council agenda. But this week? Nothing.

* No new public works contracts

* No updates on the Buffalo Pound Water Treatment Plant upgrades

* Not a peep about the new community garden initiative

It's got folks wondering, you know? What's going on behind those big doors downtown? Is it a technical glitch, or something else entirely? We'll keep digging, oh for sure. Because even when it's quiet, it's still Regina, and we still want to know what's happening.

I'm Darlene Chicken-Lawson, and that's the Morning Wire.
