FFS, it's not a tree................ it's a stump.

Although I do wonder how much the Vancouver Parks Board bilked the taxpayers for this piece of "art"?

[Hyack]

$1:

Since it’s commissioned by a private developer, Coupland notes your tax dollars are not paying for it.

It's true cost is probably more than the $200,000.00 it cost to stabilize the original tree in Stanley Park.....

[raydan]

Don't you guys have enough trees as it is?

[Freakinoldguy]

You can never have enough trees.

But, as in the life of every person and tree, there come's a time to just let go and this was one of those times.
