When you actually go out of your way to find some information that wasn't fed to you by PJ Mercanti, we can continue the discussion. It appears that you like going to casinos. There's nothing wrong with that. But wanting a casino in Hamilton because it's more convenient for you is a little bit selfish.

Do you think I'm against the casino for selfish reasons? Actually, I guess you could say that - if you consider "wanting to live in a world class city" selfish.

Definition of a whiner, a person who seeks obscure data to back up an irrational position, their position, all the while ignoring any data or facts that may show their position to be irrational and entirely self centred.

Hamilton will never be a world class city as long as we have councils willing to listen to small minorities who seem to be the only ones that our councillors listen to. If you want any proof of this all you need to do is look at the downtown and the mess we have there courtesy of the complainers. That's what the complainers have given this city. I have seen it over and over again for the last thirty years that I have been interested in this city. People propose things, the whiners complain it's rejected and ten years later after it has been a success elsewhere those same whiners say why didn't we do that here.
