Exactly that. Other than the outlay of cash and construction, BRT has all the costs of LRT in exchange for far fewer benefits. And the outlay of cash? Every other city is getting that same deal or better. Why should Hamilton say "no, okay, Ottawa and Mississauga and Waterloo and Toronto can have our money"?

If the Province wants to back off on Metrolinx and say "y'know what, we can't afford all this municipal transit stuff we've got planned - you're all out of luck"... well, I won't be happy, but at least I'll understand. But I'll be damned if I watch Hamilton's nay-sayers screw this up for us the way they screwed up the stadium, while my tax dollars get funnelled into cities that already have far healthier economy and transit than Hamilton.
