you must remember, folks who say they are in favour of BRT are really in favour of anything that will result in less money being spent anywhere except more roads and highways. Deep down they would rather not spend a dime on transit, but given the opportunity to confuse the public with misleading statements and untrue facts, they will take that route all day long. Sad part is, it's not like Hamilton will get to keep the extra few hundred million if we choose to not build LRT. We'll be sending it to all our competing cities who are begging for LRT money. And we'll be left with the higher operating costs and less economic development of BRT forever, while our competitors invest in a real transportation and EcDev network that will turn them into boomtowns, and allow poverty inc to reign supreme here for decades to come.
