This is Hazel being Hazel. Loud, promoting Mississauga, trying to carve out a bigger piece of the pie for her community. She has to. The "Revenue Tools" that will come on stream to pay for LRT in Hazel's "Land of the Car" will go a long way towards camoflaging the massive property tax hikes that will be coming down the pipe in Mississauga in the not too distant future. Mayor McCallion will not long be in the ground before people start to realize she hasn't done such a great job after all. Sure she held the line on taxes but she largely did it by spending development fees almost as fast as they were coming in. Now the poster child for suburban sprawl is landlocked on its municipal borders and the old infrastructure boogeyman is on his way. Along comes Metrolinx and its "revenue tools" as the perfect patsy for Hazel to pass off as the reason for having to raise property taxes. Perfect timing.
