The City’s decision to use money from the rejected Rapid Transit plan to build a water park is a complete slap in the face to Winnipeg. Rapid Transit would have vastly improved commuting for Winnipeg Bus Riders and increased the number of people on the bus, thus decreasing gas emissions.
"I want to see this water park in my lifetime. It think it's time our children had that opportunity," said the mayor.”
Sam Katz wants ‘our’ children to have the opportunity to have a pool? Well that’s fantastic.
I want ‘our’ children to have the opportunity of living without global warming and a rapidly depreciating planet.
The mayor found it embarrassing a city the size of Winnipeg does not have a major indoor water park. What’s embarrassing is having a mayor whose priorities are completely askew.
This is money that could be used for educational programs or food and shelter for our homeless. This money could have been used in a lot of ways, that could have truly improved lives and given people a chance to start over.....but a pool..well hey that's pretty amazing too.
