If The City of Calgary listens at all to the "4 businessmen" trying to gut the Green Line transit project, they& #39;ll prove that

Barry Lester, Jim Gray, Steve Allan, and Brian Felesky are four Calgary residents that should be treated just like you and I on consultations for transit projects. The reality is that they& #39;re given special treatment — specific hearings at Council with no time limit:

This is only the public facing side of it, I& #39;m willing to speculate that #yyccc Councillors have spoken to these four men on the phone or met them offsite (no requirement to report offsite meetings or phone calls). It happened at least once: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/green-line-private-event-petroleum-club-calgary-1.5467592">https://www.cbc.ca/news/cana...

How many of you get as much one-on-one time with your City representatives as these four men have?

So-called Public Hearings and Public Engagement sessions should be renamed to reflect reality:

"Some-of-the-public Hearings" or

"If-you-make-less-than-$200k Engagements"
