I have noticed this buildup on everything from the pool to the rainwater to the doors and windows of my home. I will continue to keep an eye on this but if anyone has info or ideas please let me know. I truly hope this is nothing more then pollen but for some reason I doubt it.

Here is my sunset and odd looking clouds. The Chemspray was average today, nothing big. These strange cloud formations would not be so odd if we knew what they were doing and why. I can only hope for answers. I am starting to think maybe the orbs and lights in the sky may be some sort of hologram that can be produced when they fill the sky with chemicals. Our health means nothing to the people behind this, they have their own agenda.

Barrie is a city located on Kempenfelt Bay, an arm of Lake Simcoe in the central portion of Southern Ontario, Canada. Although geographically within Simcoe County, the municipality is politically separate.
The city's north and south ends are separated by a deep valley which contains the historic downtown area along Kempenfelt Bay (off Lake Simcoe).
Barrie is located in the Greater Golden Horseshoe, the most densely populated area of Canada. As of 2006, the city's population was 128,430 residents, The success of the concert contributed to the resistance to a plan to convert the concert area to a commercial district. However, the stage, buildings and many of the trees on site have been destroyed since construction of the Park Place commercial district has begun.
An explosion in the Royal Thai restaurant, housed in the landmark Wellington Hotel, at the historic Five Points intersection in Barrie's downtown core occurred at 11:20 PM on 6 December 2007. The fire quickly spread to several neighbouring buildings. Firefighters battled the blaze well into the following morning, requiring assistance from other Simcoe County fire services. Officials estimate the damages to be in the millions. The Wellington Hotel building collapsed. It was over one hundred years old. On 17 February 2008, two people were charged in connection with the fire, after the Ontario Fire Marshal's office concluded the explosion and fire were the result of arson.
Geography
Barrie is located in the central portion of Southern Ontario, known as Central Ontario and in the urban agglomeration, the Greater Golden Horseshoe. It is accessible via Highways 26, 400, 11 and has convenient access to Highway 401, the Highway 407 Express Toll Route and to neighbouring Toronto. Pearson International Airport in Toronto is less than a one hour drive from Barrie via Highway 400, a six lane highway that runs directly through Barrie.Barrie's downtown is situated in a distinct curved or wrapped valley, surrounding the western edge of Kempenfelt Bay. Terrain is generally flat near the city's centre. Moving away from the downtown and up the valleys, the terrain can be rather steep in areas. Over the last few decades, the city has expanded its urban area beyond the confines of the valley, particularly to the south and south-east.
The Province of Ontario has enacted legislation that will enable Barrie to annex from the town of Innisfil as of January 1, 2010. The land in question extends south beyond 10th line west of the 10th Sideroad, and as far south as Lockhart Road on the east side of the 10th Sideroad. Innisfil retains the community of Stroud, but the community of St. Pauls will shift to Barrie.
The city does not have any major rivers within its limits, but does have numerous creeks and streams, most of which empty into Kempenfelt Bay.
Communities
The City of Barrie consists of 23 communities: Allandale, Allandale Heights, Ardagh, Bayfield, Bayshore, Bayshore Estates, Codrington, East Bayfield, Grove East, Holly, Letitia Heights, Lakeshore, Mapleview West Business Park, Northwest, Painswick North, Painswick South, Queens Park, Sanford, South Barrie Business Park, South Barrie Industrial Park, Sunnidale, and Welham Industrial Park.
Climate
Barrie has a humid continental climate (Koppen climate classification Dfa), with warm, humid summers and cold winters.In late spring and summer months, the Barrie area is well known for heavy thunderstorm activity and the occasional funnel cloud or tornado sighting.
In the winter months, the proximity to the Great Lakes moderates winter temperatures but also results in significant snowfall in the general area. Barrie is located along the southern edge of Ontario's snowbelt region, where lake-effect snow, primarily from Georgian Bay, falls throughout the winter. An average of 238 centimetres (95 inches) of snow falls annually, with at least 50% being lake-effect. The snowfall gradient is tight, therefore snowfall totals tend to be significantly higher just north of the city as compared with the south end.
Economy
The following are some of the city's major employers:
Notwithstanding these major employers, the perception of Barrie is that it is a bedroom community for people who commute to Toronto, which is approximately 90 km south of Barrie. However, only 32% of the resident-employed labour force (17,040 persons/53,400 persons) actually commute out of Barrie for employment purposes. In addition to this, 28% of the resident-employed labour force (14,880 persons/53,400 persons) actually commute into Barrie for employment for a net out-commuting figure of only 4.26%(17,040 persons –14,880 persons]/(50,665 persons employed in Barrie)). Source: 2001 Census and City of Barrie Economic Development.
Tourism plays an important role in the local economy. Barrie's waterfront is at the heart of its tourism industry, with events like the Kempenfest arts and crafts festival attracting more than 300,000 people. Recreational activities include skiing at nearby Horseshoe Resort, Snow Valley, Mount St. Louis Moonstone, and Blue Mountain as well as boating in Kempenfelt Bay. The city also boasts several beaches including Minet's Point Beach, Johnsons Beach, The Gables, Tyndale Beach, and Centennial Beach. Barrie's waterfront is currently under heavy construction, with the relocation of several roadways to provide more greenspace and parkland along the lakeshore.
There are numerous winter recreation activities and facilities in the surrounding area, including skiing, snow tubing and snowboarding resorts, snowmobile trails and ice fishing.
Transportation
Roads
Barrie is served by highways 400 and 26 (which is known as Bayfield Street within Barrie). Highway 400 goes right through the city on a roughly north-south basis, and highway 26 starts at the 400 interchange with Bayfield St. and runs to the north-west. Barrie was once served by Ontario highways 90, 27, 131 and 11 but after the province downgraded many highways in the late 1990s, these are now known as Simcoe County Road 90 (Dunlop Street), Simcoe County Road 27, Simcoe County Road 30, and the portion of Highway 11 through Barrie is Yonge Street.Other arterials roads that carry traffic throughout the city include Mapleview Drive, Ferndale Drive, 10th Line, Big Bay Point Road, Huronia Road and Penatangushine Road (former Highway 11/400A Simcoe Road 93).
Public transit
Public transit is provided by Barrie Transit, which operates numerous bus routes. GO Transit connects the City to the GTA through bus and train service. Barrie currently has the Barrie South GO Station and a central bus terminal.
Accessible transit
Accessible transit is offered by booking with city run Barrie Accessible Community Transportation Service. Most regular bus routes operated by Barrie Transit are accessible using low floor vehicles.
Interurban rail
In November 2009, studies began in support of a second Barrie GO train station to be located in the city centre (Allandale Station). As of 2010 this second connection has not been completed.
Passenger rail
Barrie was once served by scheduled passenger rail service. Allandale Station (Barrie) was a stop for the Grand Trunk Railway, Canadian National Railway and VIA Rail. Ontario Northland's Northlander used the station as a stop, as did CN Rail/VIA Rail The Canadian and GO Transit's former Bradford line routes. Regular passenger rail service to the station ended in the 1980s. From 1990 to 1993 GO Transit rail service stopped at the station, but all rails on the line were removed in 1996 and the station finally abandoned. Only the station building and freight shed remain on the site. The coaling tower, Simcoe Co-op tower and roundhouse were demolished once the CN yard closed. Rail lines now run south of the station and GO's Barrie layover yard is located near the station.
Interurban bus
Barrie is also served by interurban bus service. Penetang-Midland Coach Lines and parent Greyhound Canada operates buses to and from Barrie to Toronto Yorkdale Bus Terminal. Greyhound operates QuickLink commuter service from Barrie to Toronto seven days a week. In the past Gray Coach operated from Toronto to Barrie and route was acquired by Greyhound. GO Transit operates bus service to Barrie. Ontario Northland operates bus routes from various locations to and from Barrie. All inter-urban buses operated from the Barrie Transit Terminal at 24 Maple Street.

Culture
celebrations.]]In 2008 Barrie city council started electing an exemplary citizen as an honorary Mayor. This occurs on the first day of summer as a symbolic start to the lucrative tourist season in the City. Michael Barnes has been recognized as the first recipient for this award.Barrie is home to a number of live performance companies including Theatre by the Bay, Talk is Free Theatre and and the Huronia Symphony. Grove Park Home is the practice hall for On Stage Performance Group which performs in Cookstown. The Strolling Youth Players, and the Kempenfelt Community Players also all perform in Barrie. In addition, an annual live concert series is hosted by Georgian College. Barrie is home to many galleries and studios. A Studio tour in the Barrie, Orillia area takes place on the Canadian Thanksgiving weekend every year. It is called the Images Studio Tour and has over 25 artists on average. The self guided tour allows people to visit artists in their working studio and see how the art is created while enjoying the beautiful fall colours driving through the two cities and the countryside. Potters, jewellers, painters, textile artists and fashion designers make up a few of the disciplines of the talents on display.
Barrie is also home to the MacLaren Art Centre, an innovative art gallery that supports the visual arts in Simcoe County. It inspired the "Art City" project, which has had many different large sculptures installed around the city. These can be found in parks and along the scenic waterfront. The MacLaren Art Centre is a large and beautiful building on Mulcaster Street in downtown Barrie. International and Canadian artists display in the three main galleries. A permanent collection of art is slowly growing, the Radio Cafe, a gift shop, film nights, speakers, theatre and many children's programs and community art projects are just a small part of the gallery's mandate. This gallery contributes overall to a vibrant arts community in the Barrie area with it leading edge arts. An August Rodin sculpture in bronze called "The Thinker" is housed permanently on the front gardens of the gallery. On Lakeshore Mews two galleries have opened recently: Gary Owen Gallery and Awkward Gallery. The Gary Owen Gallery specializes in local original art and Awkward Gallery opens its doors to all types of contemporary Canadian art.
