Current Mayor Scott Goidmanson vs. Former Mayor Stew Young.

Who would win in a UFC style cage match in the octogon?

Scott is younger, taller, has the reach and speed. Knows the rules, a finesse fighter, can get inside his opponents head.

Stew is older but experienced, raised in the streets, a brawler from the OG Langford. Knows how to take a hit.

I'd say if Goodmanson can stay out of reach and wear his opponent down, he would win.

If Stew can get in close and take his opponent to the ground, it's his.

Can we talk about the purchase of 3680 Trans Canada Highway?

I believe the costs for this Langford Park are over 5 million dollars so far, and it's behind a locked gate.

What is going on here?

What purpose did the previous council have in mind for this property?

So far, it seems like nothing more than a private oceanfront retreat for those that can gain access.

Certainly, the public is not allowed to visit.

There are 2 homes on the property.

Who gets to use them?

Do they just sit empty?

Supposedly, one is for an on sight caretaker.

Is Langford paying somebody to live on a private, multimillion dollar, Oceanfront property that no one is allowed to visit?

That sounds like a sweet gig. Where do I apply?

Stew Young was mayor when Langford bought this property. What were his intentions?

He must have known it needed millions more dollars to make it useful for public purposes.

At any rate, this thing seems like a white elephant. Personally, I'd love to visit and go swimming or kayaking or paddleboarding there, but the public is banned from this public park.
