Re: “City to rescue corridor fruit trees,” Sept. 17.
Now, the Vision-led park board wants to waste valuable funds to transplant fruit trees illegally grown on CP land in the Arbutus Corridor. Previously, the city council led by Vision withheld information on the Burrard Bridge contractual improvements with a spurious claim of terrorism secrecy necessity.
The Vision party simply feels it is warranted to use civic funds to further their political agenda time and again, and to keep information from taxpayers if necessary to further their goals.
We need a change to politicians that realize they are not empowered to make spending decisions designed to improve their political fortunes at our expense.
