The City had already made up it's mind. If Bob Young wants to try to change it he should be picking up the full costs.
ReplyDeleteCome on. Young can pay for it. Why does the everday man get cha chinged all the time?

I will fondly remember the two days in May 2010 when the city appeared to have finally found the ability to tell those with narrow self-interest and regressive opinions that their input was no longer required.
ReplyDeleteMaybe we can have a civic holiday every May 6th to remember the glorious event, or perhaps a moment of silence on May 8th would be more appropriate?
I don't think a mediator will do anything since Eisenberger has already made up his mind. He is not willing to compromise or do what is right for the city only what is right for himself and his hidden agenda. He has already blatantly lied on several occasions including the May 17th deadline threat and also concerning the progress being made at the west harbour site.. The best thing would be to have both sides present their case to the people of Hamilton and let them vote on it.
ReplyDeleteWhy doesn't Mr. Young just say EXACTLY where he wants the stadium located and EXACTLY how much he will contribute if it is built there.

ReplyDeleteThe mayor is the one with the hidden agenda???
In an email response from Scott Mitchell, a friend of mine was told "He didn't understand the issues". But the Ti-Cats have supposedly made those issues very well known through the media... I thought they were, access, parking and "visibility"??? But Mr. Mitchell claims a citizen of Hamilton well versed on the topic "Doesn't understand the issues".
So who is the one with the "hidden agenda"?
