City Council's primary mission should be to embetter the lives of the residents of Hamilton.
To me, that means supporting investment in our community that will ensure a future for the growth of our resident's quality of life, and our city's economy.
Investing in LRT is the extremely well-researched way for this city to do both.
And so I hope in sincerity that Hamilton's leaders will offer up their unwavering support of LRT- so that we may continue to do what is best for this city, not only economically but for the quality of life for out citizens as well.
