I'm not sure what traffic you think will be forced onto Linden, which doesn't make any connections, I have no idea what traffic jams you think will occur at Joseph and Queen as a result of less traffic on Joseph, but it suffices to say I think you're wrong.

Joseph being made one way isn't the same as an urban highway, there are lots of one lane one way roads in DTK which aren't a problem, even the street you give as an example.  This road will in fact have a narrow 4 meter curb-to-curb profile.

The fact that the Water St. cul-de-sac has been removed from Jubilee is a huge shame, and frankly, is reason enough for me to consider opposing this plan as state. This is probably one of the most dangerous parts of the park, and this would be a huge improvemnt, and I am frankly, angry that it is gone. As usual selfish ignorant folks scared of change are making our city worse.

These are probably the same assholes who opposed sidewalks on Jubilee.
You don't have to trust my word. Come to the meeting on Monday at 930 and ask the city what they anticipate will happen. 
They're not hiding it. 
You continue to exercise your privilege.

I'm not asking council, I'm asking you how you think people will be forced out of their homes. Your argument makes no sense.

Complaining about my privilege doesn't hide that.
