00:00:06.600 For those who aren't in Calgary, there's been a blanket rezoning thing that's now in the process of being repealed,
00:00:11.840 which means hearings going on for days where hundreds of Calgarians are allowed to come in and actually speak their mind to the councillors and staff.

00:00:59.960 and a cry because they had to listen to you on policy issues.
