Keep our fishermen local! They keep our communities anchored! I like knowing where my fish comes from!
Earl supported: Prime Minister of Canada: Support peace, reconciliation, conservation for Canada's fisheries and the voice of CanadaIn 1969, the City of Toronto expropriated land from many of the homeowner’s properties around the perimeter of the ravine to PROTECT the ravine lands from development . That historic move should not be in vain. City Council and the City of Toronto should oppose this development.
There should be no changes to the zoning and no damage in the form of development to this sensitive ecosystem.
Valerie supported: Protect our ravine from overdevelopment!I am 3rd generation growing up in this immediate area and have many memories of the ravine. I find it disgusting theses developers are even considering destroying this beautiful little spot of nature to line their pockets!!!
Nicole supported: Protect our ravine from overdevelopment!Trees bring shade,oxygen, a place for wildlife to live on , a place for people to sit under and enjoy, a place to decorate lights for Christmas, why cut it down? It provides so much benefit!
Mary supported: Save the Mighty Sequoia Tree at Centennial Square, Victoria BC, from Wrongful DemolitionI love this tree. It would be a constant sad experience to walk by city hall and remember it used to be there. Please don’t cut it down.
Sean supported: Save the Mighty Sequoia Tree at Centennial Square, Victoria BC, from Wrongful DemolitionIt's an icon, a staple of city hall and sentinel square, and it's a beautiful tree! No building or stand or empty grass space will replace its natural beauty and majesty. Tell me this how long has it stood there? Longer then the people who want it gone have been alive I'm sure of that. Shame on those who wish to take away this giant from the people and city of victoria.
Leif supported: Save the Mighty Sequoia Tree at Centennial Square, Victoria BC, from Wrongful DemolitionAs the City of Victoria grows so should this mighty tree, symbolizing strength and maturity, a link to the past and a promise to the future. The Centennial Square Sequoia is probably a last refuge for small birds and bats in downtown Victoria. Its removal would be environmentally criminal. City Council cannot abrogate it's responsibility by referring to this as a decision by past Councils and parks staff.
Ken supported: Save the Mighty Sequoia Tree at Centennial Square, Victoria BC, from Wrongful DemolitionI have lived in Victoria my entire life, I remember visiting this tree when I was a child and the centennial square isn't complete without it. Not every public space needs to be reconstructed, the square just needs a mild cleanup. If the tree was sick or was a safety problem then I would understand, but the reason shown to cut it down is unnecessary.
Izumi supported: Save the Mighty Sequoia Tree at Centennial Square, Victoria BC, from Wrongful DemolitionIt is amazing that in this day and age council would consider destroying a healthy tree to further a vanity project.
The destruction of a modern heritage site with architectural and sister city attributes to become a splash park is highly ill-conceived.
If you must have a splash park integate it into the Romeo site, a mere block away.
Do Not Destroy The Sequoia.
