Someone just the other day was telling me he was speaking to the owner of a sports store now closing its doors, and the owner was blaming LRT. He didn't seem to have any other factors he was blaming (though I am receiving this second-hand), and apparently claimed that the year before construction started was a banner year.
It's usually pointless to argue against things like some of the claims made in that letter. I do think it's sad to see businesses go under, though.
I'm guessing she's suggesting that those moving into 'high-rise condos' have no need (or time!) home-made cookies.
As for that sports store...who knows. I'm sure for any store closing there are a lot of factors, and perhaps lost business to the LRT is just the final straw.
