Dear Editor,
I read with interest the article by Dan Ferguson on page A16 [Changes part of plan, 91原创 Advance Times, Oct. 8].
It seems to me this has been an arbitrary decision. Correct me if I am wrong.
The renaming of 80th Avenue to University Drive is one peculiar issue, but I wonder if members of the Fort 91原创, Springbrook and Milner communities are content with being folded into a 鈥楿niversity District.
My perception of TWU [Trinity Western University] is that it is not an inclusive institute of higher learning. TWU鈥檚 issues with the Law Society made us all well aware of that.
It seems to me that there is a hidden agenda behind the renaming of 80th Avenue and invention of a 鈥楿niversity District鈥� and downplaying the names of historical communities.
The powers that be are pushing for more development in this general area it seems. This is another way of subtly influencing 91原创 residents acceptance of the breakdown of the Agricultural Land Commission.
It would be interesting to hear the reaction of 91原创 residence particularly those in the aforementioned areas.
Are there other locations in Canada where areas are designated as University Districts ? Especially those with a not inclusive agenda.
Just wondering.
