@itsahousingtrap Should just build massively tall condos on the perimeter of the greenbelt and make it the great wall of nimbyism so we can enclose all the low rise single family homes within.
if her stance on homeless shelters in this city wasn't enough, here's another good reminder that the new city councillor for university-rosedale is very much a fake progressive - day 1
