Your Regina City Hall is too quiet. What's going on?

Your City Hall is still 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.

Well, this past week has been a real head-scratcher down at City Hall, eh? Usually, there's always something bubbling up, some *pîkiskwêwin* about road repairs or a new bylaw. But this week? It's been quieter than a prairie road at midnight, oh for sure.

Honestly, it feels like the tumbleweeds have been rolling through the council chambers more than actual civic updates. We've been checking and checking, and the open data portal? Just as empty as my coffee cup on a Monday morning.

* No new reports on infrastructure projects.

* No updates on local initiatives.

* The usual hustle and bustle? Nowhere to be found.

It makes you wonder, doesn't it? Is everyone just enjoying the early spring sun, or is something else going on? Either way, for us folks here in Regina, it means a lot of unanswered questions about what's next for our city. Keep an eye out for those weather alerts though, because Mother Nature is never quiet, eh?

This is Darlene Chicken-Lawson, bringing you the Morning Wire.

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