We scrapped the plans that we had already spent more than $100,000 to develop and went back to the drawing board.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter the city bashed our proposal [Mayor Morris Trudeau] and council refused to meet us,\u201d Guindi complained. \u201cInstead, the interim city manager and an urban planner met four church leaders, including parish priest Fr. Peter Saad. They told us \u2018we will be increasing the residential density of that lot\u2019 and suggested that we sell the property.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey said \u2018We outwaited the guys who wanted to rezone for Wal-Mart and we can just outwait you,\u2019\u201d he continued. \u201cThey didn\u2019t understand that we\u2019re not in this for the money. The church is not trying to make a profit. It is multi-generational. Our priority is youth. We invest heavily in young people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Guindi pointed out that the church went to well beyond what is legally required, in order to respect surrounding residents.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had planned an underground parking garage so visitors wouldn\u2019t have to park on the street,\u201d he explained. \u201cThe facilities would benefit the whole community and not just the church. The community centre was going to be the first phase of construction, because you can pray in a gym, but you can\u2019t play in a church. The idea was to accommodate youth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to Pointe Claire spokeswoman Marie-Pier Paquette-S\u00e9guin, Mayor Trudeau was too busy to speak to <i>The Suburban<\/i> about the church.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wasn\u2019t a party to everything, so I prefer not to comment,\u201d Councilor Paul Bissonnette, who has represented the district since 2005, told <i>The Suburban.<\/i> \u201cI don\u2019t know all the information. If I\u2019m not sure of everything, if I don\u2019t know everything, I\u2019m not making comments.\u201d<\/p>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\nBissonnette preferred that Pointe Claire\u2019s new city manager Robert Weemaes speak to the issue. Weemaes arrived at Pointe Claire city hall Aug. 25, more than three months after the church decision.<\/p>\n<div>\nWeemaes\u2019 former employer, the city of Gatineau, reportedly paid him more than $400,000, after council unanimously voted to dismiss him last year. Gatineau Mayor Maxime Pedneaud-Jobin said at the time that the career municipal civil servant had published an open letter in 2011, critical of Gatineau\u2019s city\u2019s elected officials.<\/p>\n<p>According to Guindi, the Pointe Claire is also giving the Pope Tawadros II the cold shoulder. Neither the mayor nor Councilor Bissonnette have accepted the church\u2019s invitation a reception that expected to attract about 1,000 dignitaries\u2014including federal, provincial and other municipal elected officials\u2014to welcome the Orthodox pontiff on his first visit to Canada.<\/p>\n<p>Copts have faced centuries of persecution in their native Egypt, particularly in recent years, until the Muslim Brotherhood was ousted in a <i>coup d\u2019\u00e9tat<\/i> last year.<br \/>\n  (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i[&#8216;GoogleAnalyticsObject&#8217;]=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){<br \/>\n  (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),<br \/>\n  m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)<br \/>\n  })(window,document,&#8217;script&#8217;,&#8217;\/\/www.google-analytics.com\/analytics.js&#8217;,&#8217;ga&#8217;);<\/p>\n<p>  ga(&#8216;create&#8217;, &#8216;UA-45892555-1&#8217;, &#8216;auto&#8217;);<br \/>\n  ga(&#8216;send&#8217;, &#8216;pageview&#8217;);<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<b><br \/><\/b><\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/rf.podcastfixit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/140909-St.-Peter-and-St.-Paul-Coptic-Orthodox-Church-1024x684.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/rf.podcastfixit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/140909-St.-Peter-and-St.-Paul-Coptic-Orthodox-Church-1024x684.jpg\" height=\"213\" width=\"320\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<b>Pointe Claire has rezoned former St. Jeanne de Chantal Roman Catholic Church and school land.
