one thing that I'm enjoying seeing play out in this new development is further proof of my assertion for many years now - that Hamilton's 'big business' community and old boys club members do little more than flap their gums when it comes to issues like this. Sure, they'll host rallies and call WH supporters unemployed bums, or go on CHML and have a big love fest with their various Ticat hosts, but not ONE of them was willing to put up a cent. It shouldn't surprise us that an out of town land holder is the only large private investor to come on board with some actual money so far. Our 'bigwigs' are nothing more than corporate welfare recipients, all yelling and screaming for a location to be chosen next to their properties so that gobs of tax money can prop up their businesses a little more.

Of course, none of Hamilton's old media will report this angle, so I thought I'd post it here.
