Statement by T. S.

I live in Ottawa and I will be moving to Hamilton shortly. Ottawa city council made the mistake of scrapping a light rail plan in 2006, which cost the city millions in lawsuits. Ottawa should have had light rail 10 years ago. The city created a new plan and began the construction a couple years ago. With the increased population, the construction is a nightmare. Having a bus only transportation system is archaic. Every city that can support a light rail system needs to begin planning for one. It is the way of the future and better for the environment. Sticking to a bus only system will be detrimental. Look around the world, cities every where have a successful light rail system. Canadian cities need to look to the future and in my humble opinion, that is light rail.
