I edited my post after you posted.

I just wish the media coverage were a bit better, and people thought about issues like maybe tax rates, transit services, and the development regime in the suburbs vs. downtown. We don't see much about suburban vs. downtown development, and not much thought is directed toward the downtown when we hear about Washmill, road work in Burnside, or RIM getting payroll rebates and locating in Hammonds Plains. The Herald and others are a bit better now but for a long time they had basically constructed a very frustrating and incorrect "dying downtown" narrative combined with very shallow business coverage.
