Exactly! At least the residents of Yvonne own the trees behind their houses from Lorette to Champion. The original plan was to cut all those down.
Another weird planning move - putting 3 huge apartment buildings but no sidewalks on the street.
I use a full lane when walking in protest of the stupidity of urban planners not ever thinking beyond the almighty car. People complain about traffic now - wait until the apartments at the end of Yvonne/Dieppe are built. It used to be faster for me to drive downtown, now I can bike there faster.
