Not a WASTE. A life saved is someone's son or daughter, a future productive citizen.Especially in the hallowed halls of higher learning.

So you're saying don't help anybody, if your chosen group is not represented. Nice.

Vacant storefront pilot project discussion to continue at next council meeting

Ms. Klassen has proposed an idea that may provide the beginning of a solution to the ills our downtown suffers. I, for one, applaud her out of the box thinking. It sounds like some of the rest of council do not support creative thinking, perhaps those naysayers can only colour inside the lines and are fearful of any change. It's a good idea! To go further, it should be illegal for a building owner to leave their property looking derelict and empty. It has been proven that maintaining a building, replacing broken windows, erasing graffiti etc help to maintain the integrity of a neighbourhood. How about temporary window displays, where the appearance is that someone is there, as opposed to obviously empty and unused. Naysayers and negative thinkers begone!

Revisiting the comment section, I see mostly blaming, negative opinions and finger pointing, but no constructive solutions or ideas. At least Ms. Klassen has the courage to publicly express an opinion, against the tide of popular dissent.
