Just a thought:
Most JW's don't know the big picture of the organization they belong to. Why, does the organization announce these closures if they are having financial difficulties or are doing something underhanded?
It seems to me that halls could be closed here and there and only the ones attending them and a few surrounding ones a would know about it.

Spiral - millie210, sorry, I hit my mouse and accidentally gave you a dislike. Please disregard that.@waton, yes, the bOrg has often rearranged congregations in an effort to break up cliques, the kind that cause trouble. I can remember back in the day the CO rearranging the congregations, but the powerful/popular ones just disregarded the "direction" and went to the congregation they wanted to go to. Everything was back as it was before the rearrangement within six months. Now, with the sale of KHs added in, that would be much harder.
I think a lot of people will just quit going if it's too hard. Things aren't what they once were, and the bOrg just really isn't much "fun" anymore, even for the devoted.
Thanks Spiral,
Perhaps for some, this will be their opportunity to fall through the cracks so to speak!

Both Prime minister Trudeau's and former PM Brian Mulroney's family residences are there, so slimmer pickings for wt & TdG potentially among the bright stars acknowledged there.
PS: or is there another trend, even if unintended, getting rid of prestigious names? somewhere else: from ""oceanside" and " paradise valley" to " hill view" for example? ?
