What locals have to say about Irving HQ plan

The Telegraph Journal has resumed its habit of portraying public opinion by using a "talking heads" style of reporting. They ask random folks on the street (the sort that are available to comment when a reporter is roaming around midday) their opinions on issues.

Over the last few days the locals have had various criticisms of the Irving headquarters proposed for the waterfront. Many criticisms (ranging from the Irvings are richer than I am so I hate them to a casino should go there even though the province has said one can't) have been presented in brief one line explanations.

The folks at Giraffecycle, a local forum, have been talking about the HQ too. They've also taken to commenting on the TJ's style of journalism as it relates to this story.
