Barrie may appear as the bashful kid sister peeking out from behind her celebrity
siblings – the southern megatropolis of Toronto
and northwest Georgian Bay communities. In reality, Barrie
gives a stellar performance in the areas of culture, recreation and scenery.
With a bounty of activities in and around the area, a soaring population growth
and economic expansion, Barrie does not hide in the shadows – the spotlight
shines directly on it.
