Statement by John Rogers
For once, Hamiltonians are being offered a hand up by the Federal and Provincial governments. This hasn't happened often during my lifetime as Hamilton is usually out of political sync with, and under represented at, the tables of power.
This is an opportunity to reinvigorate our infrastructure while gaining world class public transit that is not on the backs of Hamilton taxpayers.
Rails unite communities and last for lifetimes.
Buses run on highways that divide communities while saddling those communities with the never ending high cost of replacement and depreciation.
We have had this discussion. Conducted an election on the issue. The people have already spoken.
For those alleged opponents seeking increased exposure at the expense of the people of Hamilton; consider that someday this debate will be history and your legacy will be judged accordingly.
The finish line is in sight, try not to stumble before we reach it.
