I disagree. Better to be direct, than frame it in soft 'feel good' terms. It's a matter of people's livelihoods. My tone invites confrontation as a sincere reflection of the stakes. I don't make value judgements. Ci

Same here. I grew up on Asterix & Tintin comics. Some of the most idyllic parts of my childhood. The smell of old books, dusty libraries, and having to pick 1 book per month from what seemed like endless shelves of these comics.

No, you're a NIMBY. The city had to bulldoze the park, because it was probably the only piece of public property it could acquire. It is a response to NIMBYs leaving them no option. If the city could buy 4 adjacent SFH lots and build a
