I like McKenney, but they need to rethink their mentality of keeping centretown small, low-rise houses. This isn't Kingston or Cornwall. Downtown needs tens of thousands of more people. We are never going to get 60% intensification, not even close.

Agreed. I really like McKenney and I'll happily keep voting for them but I really don't get why they would stand in the way of this. I hope it's a strategy to express disapproval at first in order to extract more community benefits from the developer in exchange for the height and density they want. I'd be on board with that.
