Sounds like they were afraid the PowerPoint might be impactful enough to make a reader understand your points , and

might give it the same legitimacy that the previous presentation had been given before council. Possibly ?

Well joe, you are obviously not from The City Of Kawartha Lakes. I say this because if you were you would know that there is an arrogance that would blow your mind behind our council. They simply consider us a thorn in their side.

They don’t expect or want to be challenged . But that’s what you’re there for . To ruffle some feathers till you’re heard. I think it’s a given that you should expect to be or may be stiff armed at the start . You’re right you can never second guess what kind of a reaction you might provoke.

Oddly enough, I just finished watching a recording of a delegate question the mayor of Cambridge over a controversial design for open change rooms at a proposed recreation centre. The delegate was presentable, well spoken, and read her presentation clearly and politely. When it came to her main point, i.e. that many women and girls would not feel safe showering with naked men, the mayor interrupted the delegate for breaking "the rules of decorum", shut off the microphone, and called security.

There seems to be an epidemic of behaviour like this in our municipal governments. Our city councils ask for citizen input, but it seems that they are only willing to listen to input that they agree with.

That is interesting and it seems that the acceptance of the trans thing is politically in and a UN human rights issue. Curious though that it touched a nerve with the Mayor.

Check out this blog from Gather 2030 Substack by Maggie Hope Braun... https://gather2030.substack.com/p/no-one-is-coming-to-save-us?publication_id=1689806&post_id=138508843&isFreemail=false&r=18xl84&triedRedirect=true

Quote from that Substack:

"On today's Nova Scotia Free Speech Bulletin Podcast Host Tony Lohnes welcomes Patricia Norton to the podcast.

Today she speaks with us about all the municipalities that sold us out to agenda 21. All of those countries signed on to agenda 21 gave up their status for sovereign countries. Treason has been committed by every level of government."

INDEED , we have been sold out!

It was a rather alarming disappointment. However if you notice each time we ask for a granted privilege there is a new rule made up by the mayor that prohibits us from our request. After analyzing how these rules appear I can only assume they are premeditated rules that happen in closed sessions ,to silence the views and opinions of any folk that even attempt to challenge the agenda or policies on it. We are no doubt, in a war with our elected officials and it encompasses a substantial financial fraud.

That is upsetting to say the least...aren't all these local municipalities run by UN represenatitives now? I would say they want to keep us all in the dark for as long as possible as they don't want to awaken the sleeping lions...again, just my humble opinion. They were more than likely afraid of what you would share with everyone as have proven yourself to be very knowledgeable in past presentations,
