"Hi Peter,
I'm not throwing in the towel. I approve this particular development and believe that it will be good for us. What I'm trying to make clear is that unless you have the money to build something yourself, you are pretty much at the…"
"HOW DARE A CORPORATION WANT TO MAKE A PROFIT!!!! The nerve of some businesses to not want to work for free.
How could you say that it would "be the best thing for Mimico and Lake Shore Blvd if the developer pulls out"!!!!!!! What are you…"

"Have you met with this developer? I have, and I know him and his personnel. We should consider ourselves lucky to have a man so interested in the community. Did you know that they sponsored the event at the opening of Mimico Square? They was…"
"We need some new life in this neighbourhood! Let them come in and build. We will get some new people, new businesses, new jobs and community growth. This is a good thing in my opinion. I moved here in 2003 and that part of Lake Shore Blvd West…"
