Parking in Waterloo Region

[SammyOES2]

It's not at all the same as fencing in the yard. It's the same as bringing some chairs and hanging out for awhile. You 'monpolize' that space for some amount of time. When you stop using it, someone else can come and take it.

I'm completely with you when the city is giving out exclusive parking rights to specific parts of the road in front of a home owners house. But I don't think that's what's happening.
