    As I wrote to the City council earlier this year, I think it's time to rethink the Hastings Park master plan and give the Hastings East Vancouver residents the kind of "green space" park that is on a par with other neighborhoods in this great city. Downtown and the West End have Seawall and all its wonderful amenities, Kits has the beach and relatively easy access to other beaches and Pacific Spirit Park. Same goes for Point Grey and Shaughnessy. Cambie area has QE Park, Commercial drive and Victoria have Trout Lake and while we have the popular New Brighton Park, combining it with a greener Hastings Park that is NOT a casino, amusement park, dying race track etc and connecting all this to the Hastings Community Centre would send a strong message to our city that our Council is actually committed to more than just a green political spin message but has the will and means to invest in its residents for longterm benefits rather than short term economic gains.
