Still No News

All's quiet. I haven't heard
from anyone.

As it turns out I am not the
only homeowner that has not
settled as yet. There is one
other homeowner that has not,
possibly two.

I wonder what the game plan is
going to be once I'm the only
homeowner left, surrounded
by sharks - I mean my new corporate
neighbours.

On my way to work on Tuesday, I
noticed three police vehicles parked
on Cadillac Street. I noted that
the first vehicle was parked in
front of Brian Rizok's old house.
Brian Rizok is the gentlemen that
the Windsor Star interviewed back
in April 2007, "Power plant project
irks resident", complaining that
he was being treated unfairly
by EWCC. Obviously everything
worked out for him because the
house is empty and he's gone.

I asked an Aecon worker if the police
were doing training. She answered,
"Yes." This time there was no
sign on the sidewalk advertising
the police were training. If I had
remained at home, I wouldn't have known
the police was even around. That's
how quiet they were, at least while
I was home. I never saw an officer,
just the three vehicles.

When I see the police being provided
with the empty houses to do their training,
I think to myself it's a good thing that
EWCC/EWCP didn't manage to get a
demolition permit from the city. I'd be
screwed. I wouldn't have a chance with
the police. Maybe I'm wrong and I hope
I'm wrong, but that's what I think.
Corporations are not generous by nature.
If they are being generous it's because
they expect something in return.

I've noticed that people that are enamored
with a corporation tend to take on the
corporation's Jekyll/Hyde personality.

And I still don't think I'll be
getting anything in writing from the
permit manager.
