TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD:
This week marked the end of an era at Thunder Bay City Hall.
The final meeting of the current City Council is now in the books, and for several familiar faces, it was their last time taking a seat around the council table. That includes Mayor Ken Boshcoff, along with councillors Mike Zussino, Domenic Pasqualino, Trevor Giertuga, Rajni Agarwal, and Kristen Oliver, (as well as Shelby Ch’ng) – who are all wrapping up their service to the community.
Now, the focus shifts to a new chapter. Thunder Bay’s new City Council will be sworn in on November 30, with its first official meeting set for December 1. A warm welcome goes out to incoming Mayor Moe Comuzzi, new At-Large councillors Peng You, Julie Colquhoun, and Jamie Nichols, as well as new Ward councillors Jamie Scrimger in Red River, John Ongaro in Northwood, and Stephen Maragrit in Westfort.
They’ll join several familiar faces returning to council, including Andrew Foulds, Albert Aiello, Kasey Etreni, Mark Bentz, Brian Hamilton, and Greg Johnsen.
One nice moment from the final meeting was seeing the outgoing council make a donation to PRO KIDS Thunder Bay. A classy gesture and a great way to leave a positive impact on the community.
At the end of the day, local government is really about neighbours working together to help shape the future of their city. So here’s to those moving on, those stepping into new roles, and all the work ahead as Thunder Bay’s next council gets ready to get started.
