Perhaps an even bigger non-issue- at least with the vast majority ofpress so far, is as Norman mentions above, the land development aspect of this entire deal. Why is the press not going after that angle- because of the implications with 2010?

I think most of you have read this already, but I’ll link to it anyways, for those who haven’t.

Neither the emails, nor the land aspect of this should be ignored. And yet, we continue to watch the press do nothing.

Isn’t it odd that this is an issue or a non-issue if you will. Yet that Athletes Village is a big non issue over some apparently non-wrapped pipes. How about the fact that this thing has been so over built after the fact that the foundation likely won’t support what is had been put up there. The city has probably given variance permits to make this all ok. But the place may not stand up to the big shake.

The worst thing we can do is whine, wring our hands, whimper that “We’re doomed,” and then do nothing to improve things.

The best thing we can do right now is to get an injunction to prevent any further benefits flowing for $1. into CN pockets from BCR (that’s us).

Doesn’t seem a lot to ask, really: let us see the damn agreement, and give us time to decide what we want to do.

If you want to organize a rally of the shredding of gov. documents and the overall arrogance and secrecy of this government, I’m in.

DMJ, I think we have a responsibility to take the issue to the streets.

The cycling lobby is very well organized for blogging and god help anyone nay-saying cyclists on the web.

I think many people have thrown their hands up in despair over this government and their questionable activities. What can one do if the mainstream media downplays the provincial government’s shredding of emails.

Such a sad thing when there are so many fewer comments for this huge issue than there are for the bike fees entry. Our very democracy has been and is continuing to be undermined, and it seems most people don’t have anything to say about the subject. Please stay on this, H.O., with all of your energy. Do everything you can to bring important and powerful people into the the fight for what is left of BC. Democracy requires it, and I don’t believe you have spent your life reporting truth as nearly as you see it only to have this upon us. If you have but one fight left in you, Harvey, put it forth now, please. Help us retain the railway and all that is attached to the sale. There can be nothing innocent about the deletion of all government emails related to this sale.

(Response: It is interesting that more people are concerned about bicycle fees than a possible breakdown of responsibility under our poltical governmental system. h.o.)
