The city is only having to close these stores because Mayor Gregor Robertson allowed them to open in the first place. I said two years ago when we had 20 stores that they were illegal and that they should be closed and who said no? Coun. Kerry Jang, the mayor's colleague in Vision. Why are there no stores in Burnaby? How much in legal fees will this cost Vancouver taxpayers? Millions and millions of dollars to enforce illegal action from Day 1. Robertson and some council members are to blame for allowing this to take place. We should do what Toronto did and close them down now. Raymond Greenwood, Vancouver - --- MAP posted-by: Jo-D
