Statement by Andrew Marshall
I am disappointed and frustrated by this decision that looks political and not based on an objective of economic development or sound policy. The LRT would have created a competitive city and attracted more economic growth then a rapid bus system. The benefits of LRT would be positive outside of the core as the tax base would have improved. Capital investment decisions should be respected as they rely on timelines that are longer than any political party’s time in office. Foolish politicians are the reason Canada’s infrastructure is so lacking and we are way behind having the infrastructure to move our population. Please reverse this decision that doesn’t respect the city’s authority in determining appropriate transportation infrastructure.
