I want Hamilton to be a centre of sustainability and for the city’s leaders to choose innovative and creative tactics to make the city a better place to live; and don’t get me wrong, I really do want Hamilton to be the best city to raise a child in. However, I want to see the city start at the most basic level before getting distracted by big visions. What about an aggressive program to clean up the streets and reduce litter? Or what about making public transit a real priority instead of just a campaign promise? We need to start at the basic level, on the streets where residents and visitors walk every day, instead of beginning by dreaming up the big stuff like thriving brownfields, waterfront windfarms, and smart electricity grids. It’s time to stop getting distracted and start making Hamilton a better place to live from a grassroots street level, and after that (and only after that), let’s make Hamilton the sustainable city it could really be one day.
