I understand that, but what I mean is his whole Lansdowne platform is "oppose Lansdowne Live". Well that's great, that gives me the impression that he just wants to get rid of this deal and leave Frank Clair to rot and crumble while we spend twice as much money building "Cullen's toy" stadium at Bayview. Not to mention the cost of tearing down both Frank Clair and the Civic Centre to turn it into a park that only a select few residents (mostly from the Glebe area) will use. How about give me stuff like what he plans to do with the area (re-instate the "design competition" that never existed, explore other business options, etc. etc.) and then maybe I will change my mind about voting for him. Unlikely though.
EDIT: Sorry, "Urbandale Centre" not Civic Centre.
