I have to say, it sounds nuts over at city hall today. There’s an in-camera meeting this morning and apparently Mayor Robertson is going to make a statement/announcement right after that. It could be just my imagination, but every time I talk to someone over there, they sound exactly like those CNN reporters covering hurricanes from the centre of the storm.

Then new city manager Penny Ballem will be briefing council at a special council meeting on the Olympic village project at 2 p.m., with promises of perhaps some new information.

Undoubtedly there will be a lot of legalistic grilling, overblown rhetoric and general hysteria. And who knows what else?

It’s hard to think with one set of city storm-troopers after another coming over the barricades here.
