Community corner:

  • Just a reminder that the Toronto Music Advisory Committee is reconstituting itself at City Hall with a public meeting tomorrow (Tuesday, October 8th). The fact that it's taken a year since the city election for the group to be convened might be a sign of its relative importance to the Powers-That-Be, especially after the retirement of Coun. Josh Colle, who a driving force behind the whole endeavour in Council's previous term. Still, there seems to be a few more positive community-builders edging their way onto the committee (and hopefully less "industry" deadwood) — and when it comes down to it, this is the one pipeline we have to make ourselves heard at city hall, so even if this first meeting's agenda seems to be mostly get-to-know-yous and procedural folderol, it is important that the community that it purports to represent shows up. City Hall, Committee Room 2, starting at 1:30 p.m.
