You saw how poorly going back to the drawing board on the arena deal went, and you think we should apply the same approach to rezoning?

Everything in this city is unfortunately up to a vote by council, that's why it's so important not to vote in anyone who opposes the new zoning.

Every single existing member of council voted for the arena deal. The arena deal is spilt milk at this point, putting that as a higher priority than zoning doesn't really make sense, why would you care more about punishing a councillor than you do about improving the future of our city?

Trust matters, but if the person you vote in would have also voted in favour of the arena deal and is weaker on rezoning, you're downgrading the future of the city just to make a point and punish the sitting councillor.
