InnisfilToday recently published a letter criticizing the construction work on McKay Road and Veterans Drive in Barrie, labeling it a 'fiasco.' The writer urged the city to reconsider their construction strategies to avoid further delays and frustrations for drivers. Meanwhile, the Minnesota Wild and CUB are teaming up for a pet supply drive at Xcel Energy Center on January 15, coinciding with the Wild's game against the New York Rangers.
