[quote=Anonymous]Tell me why building in Ward 8 forces people out of their homes? That makes no sense. I lived in Ward 8.we want supermarkets as well. We want shopping and safety as well. I moved most of my family to Ward 3, but I still have reletive in Ward 8. They are not worried about being gentrified, they are worried about their kids not being able to walk to school. The city investing its future in Ward 3 is simply the easy way out. Ignoring the real problems for quick development riches. But nothing will change EOR because the city has no vision. And GGW's vision does not include those EOR. To be blunt they want more privileged people in areas of affluence rather than lifting the potential and opportunity of those already here. [/quote]
