I guess it helps to create the awareness how precious this tank is and that plans need to be made to protect it from vandalism and external influences.
Quote:
”My husband said they should put a cage over it to stop people from vandalizing it. Why can't people leave things alone?" Young said. "If they do have to cover it to protect it, that's going to eliminate that connection that kids can have with it."
Larry Belliveau came to take pictures of the newly restored tank on Monday, just hours before police released news that they had arrested a man they believe was responsible for the vandalism.
"It's a shame because they're going to have to put a fence around it," said Belliveau. "I don't know what our city has become. You can't fix stupid."
Larry Belliveau says he's angry someone vandalized the restored Second World War tank in Victoria Park. (Kate Dubinski/CBC)
