Ahhh, the hypocrits...

Four years after dissuading the city from allowing an apartment tower to rise at Winnipeg's birthplace, the Friends of Upper Fort Garry want to use the same land as a temporary surface parking lot.

The same peeps pooping on the museum seem to believe this is okay. The park is double the budget and a parking lot is okay.

Relax indeed...
