#cwlpoli geeks, your City of Cornwall 2025 draft budget documents are now posted. In a new section of the city's website, not the budget-management page that's been in use for six years. (sigh)

I'd like to extend my personal thanks to #cwlpoli Coun. Claude McIntosh, a @StandFreeholder alum, for taking a moment to recognize @freeholdertodd at the regular council meeting last night on his pending retirement. Classy to acknowledge 33yrs of dedication to the Cornwall area

Holy Rogers. As we were all distracted, note it'll take over a bunch of WB specialty channel brands and programs (from Corus and Bell). Then today's item on MLSE. Big shift in our Canadian media ecosystems.

This under the $107K comms contract the CAO and supporters said could communicate more, and better. And not the first event for which there has been zero advance notice or invite. Cornwall can do better.
