I also have a hard time recognizing Fleury as an urbanist under any sensible definition of the term considering his votes on the Civic Hospital plans.
Fluery also wanted to force a dev to provide the minimum required parking as stated by the Bylaw, the dev being in Robinson Village.

As for the hospital what exactly did he do?

For the city created Grant as part of the Vanier CIP, Mark Motors met all the requirements and then paid 1.7 million in Dev fees as part of the project. Its also not the first grant to large profitable companies, 2.32 million to Colonnade Bridgeport for a hotel in Bells corner. It was completely overblown solely because it involved a luxury car dealership.
