Oh my darlings, it appears that those children down at Barrie City Hall have been causing quite a mess, with nobody keeping an eye on them.
But never fear! The Biased Scribe is here!
Armed only with her fountain pen, her favourite gin, and rapier-like wit (or at least a dull pencil), the B.S. cuts through the BS, and exposes the naked emperors who think they're wearing crowns.
You can follow The Biased Scribe live-tweeting the shenanigans at City Council meetings, watch her rants when the fury needs unleashing, or if you're lucky, you can catch her "in the wild" throughout Barrie, handing out Golden Pencils of appreciation to all who work hard to keep democracy healthy.
Apparently the city anticipates the first of tonight's Council Threesome should finish quickly, ahem... Committee reports, no recommendations. And a letter of support and update on the "Tennis Dome" (I feel like that should be read in dramatic announcer-voice, no?)

Starts immediately after the first of tonight's Council Threesome finishes.
Put on your fancy undies and grab the fancy gin, duckies – it's Audit Day! Also starring, a recommendation from the International Relations Committee to bump their travel fund (!), the "Prudent Investor" governance update, illuminated displays for Remembrance Day, and Seniors Space at Lampman Lane Community Centre.

Recognizing Dr. Robert Banks's induction into Canada's Aviation Hall of Fame, and the boys and girls who sports.
A deputation on the Allandale MTSA Community Planning Permit System, approving all last week's motions, and a presentation about the Barrie Youth Council.
The Agenda may look scary, muffins, but most of the items were approved on consent last week – check it out at the City's eScribe (!) at https://pub-barrie.escribemeetings.com/Meeting.aspx?Id=2599f54f-8c30-4c1b-84f1-31b8491d858e&Agenda=Agenda&lang=English
I do this for the love, darlings, but also for the gin.
(But truly, it would be lovely to have a little help with hosting and production costs. Though if you find me a gin endorsement, I wouldn't kick you out of bed for eating crackers!)
