Matthew Merrifield of St. Joseph’s Catholic High School thanked Council for the opportunity provided to students to learn about the work that is done by City Council. He commented that he is astonished at the hard work, time, dedication and thought that goes into ensuring that all plans present and future are in the best interest of Barrie. Matthew observed that the Student Mayor position isn’t just an honourary position, as students his age are nearing voting age. He discussed the importance of voter participation by youth for the success of the community.
Matthew commented that when members of Council were his age, technology was not as prevalent and he wondered about the tools and challenges that will be faced 25 years from now. He noted that the Council discussions and decision related to expenditures concerning long term city debt was well thought out and will lessen the financial burdens on future generations. Matthew discussed how the actions and decisions of Council’s predecessors from the 1800s established the planning for Ba | Term Completed | |
