Statement by Jennifer Roberts

The City's LRT plan has $3.4 billion in federal & provincial funding. Show your support for the plan.

If we as a community, city and region want to make a name for ourselves globally, a step towards the future of transit is imperative. We are already so behind many other regions worldwide. LRT for Hamilton is a way for us to change our image, change how we attract business to our economy, and promote us as a tourist destination. Time for us to step up and set the standard. You want to revitalize the downtown core? Dusting off old buildings isn't the only way to do it.

Hi Doug,

We’ve met before. Back in 2014 I ran into you and your late brother in front of BMO field before a TFC game. The two of you were very friendly, Rob even gave me his card. I believed that you were in politics for the people. That is until I saw the news that the LRT in Hamilton was cancelled. You’ve taken away a great opportunity for my city. This transit line would bring jobs and economic growth to a city that sorely needs it. Please reconsider this decision and help support our city.

Sincerely,

Aaron Bennett
