Certainly, it is now common for citizens to believe that the politiâ€" cians do not listen to their constituents regarding taxes or regardâ€" ing issues as small and perhaps as unimportant as number of wards, but let me assure the reader that there are people talking and looking at the council hoping that they mean to follow the will of the people.

The proposed 1,200â€"squareâ€"foot building would be just to the north of the cityâ€"owned Seagram Museum parking lot at the corner of Erb Street West and Father David Bauer Drive. Construction of the station is tentatively scheduled to begin in November. The city‘s chiel administrative officer, Tom Stockie, told council that WSJR owned land to the north of the railway tracks, west of the Canadian Clay and Glass Gallery, and originally wanted to build its train station there. However because conâ€" struction of the building would interfere with some municipal services, the city and the company agreed to swap roughly equal amounts of land adjacent to the tracks. As a result of the land exchange, WSJR will tentatively receive a wedgeâ€"shaped piece of land south of the CN tracks and CLU, CHFC Philip Heaps Honlstyingovm\mcmismlmpommpmdpk.lhaxdsom- one recently quote the fact that in olden days a handshake on a mbdmbufl([oucmninpnccwouldmndmi(wouldbe doncandngwdlasolcosloverruns,dwconmorwouldbw those costs.
