Mr. Ford I voted for you because you shared a vision of Hamilton with an LRT. It is very disappointing that you have cancelled this. You are very aware of the battles that Toronto faced and still does regarding transit and the back and forth. I did not imagine that you were going to do the same to Hamilton.

Dear Premier Ford,
I am writing to show my support of the long-approved Hamilton LRT transit project. I believe that this has been and will continue to be a transformative investment in both Hamilton and for the Province.
This project was within a few short months of having the RFP’s submitted and has already had so much work completed on it, ie studies, planning, purchasing of properties along the route , that to throw this all away does not make sense.
This province needs you to follow-through and let the RFP’s come in and for this investment to go through to completion.
Respectfully submitted,
Deb Avetissian
