The purposes of parks include recreation, education, preservation of nature, beautification of the city, and personal benefit to citizens; but not to be revenue streams.

A photo from Stanley Park in the fall with vibrant, orange leaves on some trees. There's a green box with the words, "Affirming the Park Board’s Commitment to Transgender Lives and Rights PASSED!" and below that a quote from Vancouver Park Board Commissioner Tom Digby of the Vancouver Green Party that says, "To me, the most important part is the apology that goes out to the community... and I think the obligation is on us at the Park Board to convince you that this apology is real and will lead to concrete actions to support your lives and rights."

Many citizens have noticed the apparent agenda of the City to cut down trees to make way for more development, or for no apparent reason.
