Some of these comments are gold. If you've played hockey you know that you drive all over the place to play, and those rinks serve people from all over the city. Its more convenient for a guy next door, but then other rinks won't be for that same guy. Same goes for gymnasiums, soccer facilities, etc.
Then the part about being able to afford to live in the inner city vs the suburbs. You're clearly not comparing apples to apples. For the same lot size, house size etc. the costs are not equal. I have no idea how you suggest that they are.
Oh, and a big LOL that the amount of money is 'pretty small' when the city keeps it, but apparently a huge deal for people in favour of keeping it. That is pure gold.
