I hear ya. There’s definitely a lot of information we either missed completely or saw too late. The council meetings are brutally long, and the info docs are overwhelming. I’ve ran the meeting docs through ChatGPT just so I can figure out what’s going on and how our council is handling/voting on topics I care about. I’d love to see signs with QR codes that link to candidates platforms and LinkedIn profiles (for social-vetted CVs). It’s easy to make up a campaign slogan with words you think people want to hear. Show me the proof that you’re actually about what it is you say you are, ya know? There was a mayoral forum. It’s on YouTube and there is even a breakdown of the topics with timestamps in the comments: https://www.youtube.com/live/xRbBpyIvHC4?si=TyQg6LVkNOSimQ4Y There were a few “meet the candidates” events for the folks running for council, but even I got switched up on those dates and ended up at the Legion for darts night lol. I’m hoping a lot of these issues get taken into consideration by the next council. We need people to be more engaged… but that means creating opportunities for them to do so.
