Stealth waterfront park privatization underway in #Nanaimo
#Vancouver's Seawall has been named Canada's best public place - but it's also a neighborhood & multi-modal corridor. pic.twitter.com/zATF7zAeSg

Nanaimo’s seawall parks and neighbourhoods are first rate and our best asset. Our City Hall has just passed an upzoning for a pie-in-the-sky “Hilton” hotel development on the waterfront and our City Hall is considering privatizing large portions of our waterfront Georgia Park.
@1sidewalkballet @andrewtrevjones @NanaimoBulletin @neil21 They should NOT privatize public space. Especially for that abomination.
