...And Waterloo region has a growing opposition to their LRT. The economic benefits of LRT are so vastly over blown it borders on the ridiculous. LRT projects every where is being downgraded and re-examined. Detroit's grand project which was so hugely regaled on this site and elsewhere has been cut into a mere shadow of its initial proposal. Why? The huge amount of money involved. Right now we are looking at a budget of $1,000,000,000 to build that boondoggle in Hamilton from Eastgate to McMaster. If work ever starts on it the final bill will be much, much higher.

Such huge investments in transit only make sense in a very few select areas and the small city of Hamilton is not one of them.
