Statement by Matt Edmonds
In 2014 I moved from Hamilton to Edmonton, and was so disappointed that I would juuust miss seeing the LRT come to my home town. At the time, it seemed inevitable:
- multiple studies were unanimous that LRT would have the greatest positive impact on the city (environmentally, socially, and economically)
- LRT was ready to be implemented immediately
- funding for LRT has already been committed
And now, 6 years later, I've moved back home to find exactly as many LRT lines on operation as when I left (ie zero).
Please Hamilton, please get this one right. The world is full of hard questions, but this is not one of them. LRT is the obvious answer, and it's not close. If Edmonton can do it, I'm sure we can.
