The thread is titled The Amazing Brentwood, and it's about Shape's redevelopment of the mall. The comments veered off onto more general discussion about the wider station area, and the Brentwood Park residents, and although they're actually not about the project itself, they weren't removed. The comments then became even less related to the Amazing Brentwood, which is when the mods stepped in.
That all seems reasonable enough. There are threads about Burnaby development, and about the provincial legislation, both of which would seem to be appropriate places to express an opinion about residents concerns at how their neighborhood will be changed by the new zoning.
