Statement by Derek Podsiadly

LRT is an important part of keeping the momentum of growth and revitalization of Hamilton's downtown going. There's such great potential in the downtown core, a strong sense of community and more and more people are noticing it. Not going forward with LRT would be a step backwards and certainly discourage young professionals like myself from committing to setting up roots in this city and investing my own money back into the community. LRT is a must if we'd like to develop this city's full potential as a strong economic centre in Ontario. The future of every city will depend more than ever on a healthy downtown core. Without it Hamilton will struggle to attract new people and new investments. LRT in Hamilton will be a key part of attracting young professionals, developers, small business and new Canadians to our city and continuing economic growth.
