"A little inconvenience"?? Folks are losing their jobs. Being unable to pay rent, bills, mortgages, etc. is a lot more than just a little inconvenience. Too many people, the majority of which are seniors and families with young children are missing important doctors' appointments and medical treatments out of fear. Our main hospitals and medical facilities are in the downtown core. Small business owners can't handle loss of clients for such a long duration. They have their lives' savings invested and are at risk of losing it all. In addition, imagine living in the area! People shouting in the streets, vandalism, teargas, bonfires being lit, sirens, and helicopters until near sunrise...for over 3 months now. How do you imagine they're able to get up bright and early each morning willing and able to get to work? How on earth can they function normally?
As I wrote above, what about the rights of those being negatively affected? Do they not count at all?
I'm not saying I agree with the entirety of Bill 78 but, for dogs' sake, something has to be done to control the mayhem that is becoming of our city. This is no longer about simple tuition hikes, this is about everything and anything that people have to gripe about. It's become a freaking rant fest. Never mind youtube and 30 second news clips, you have to be here to see it, to live it, to understand what it's all about.
