So, don’t get me wrong, I am VERY thankful for the Barrie Food Bank and their resources, but I’m starting to think they may not check the food the receive.

So just a post about the waterfront and the trail

In the disgusting bathrooms that are never open? the only other opinion is purchasing a plastic bottle at the snack shack for $5. Also at night most of the trail is non lit up with half their lights burned out. DO BETTER BARRIE!!!!!! Source

I’m sure this has already been talked about, but I’m curious as to why they left this - but torn down the rest of the building? I heard somewhere it’s because there’s a rare bird living in there ?? & Anyone know what will they will be building in the lot? This is the old lot of Central collegiate Highschool on Dunlop st.

Is there a page for fippa or mfippa requests in simcoe county? One where we can

Is there a page for fippa or mfippa requests in simcoe county? One where we can post info obtained, provide help for each other making requests so they get the info requested sent the first time and maybe even some fundraising for more expensive requests. We can make inquiries and post the newly public information onto the page. Requests for such things as hospital attendance and infections. Untreated water dumps from the sewage plant. Info on new developments in barrie and simcoe county. Info on police budget and scope. You name it we can get the information and post it this will benefit everyone in the county and hold them accountable to us , the taxpayers ! Source
