You were in the Cherry Park neighbourhood, right? CPNA is regrettably only less active in that they are less organized. CPNA president didn't hesitate to delegate and invoke the neighbourhood to back up her opinions...

Personally enjoyed that "people living in 600 sf units don't contribute to a community" and that "renters aren't invested in building community" as two wildly unopposed remarks from delegates. This session really missed Councillor Singh to push back on that classist and nuclear-families-only crap. As if some of the most active organizers in the city don't live in small apartments or that you need to have a family and kids to count in building a community.
