Statement by Katherine Crosbie
The citizens of Hamilton have voted to support the LRT three times already, but still city Politicians opposed to the LRT fail to accept that the majority of Hamilton’s constituents see the economic benefits to the whole region.
Sadly, some time to go city Politicians, continue to fail to accept that the majority of citizens support the LRT.
Sadly, a provincial politician, former mayor Bob Bratina, continues to grand stand, acting like a spoiled child who doesn’t get his own way, he simply can’t accept change. Instead of recognizing and accepting that the majority of the citizens of Hamilton support the LRT, by his actions he indicates that his personal opinion, trumps the majority vote of the Hamilton’s citizens. Sadly, by continuing to grand stand, he may cause yet more expense/delays to our city.
The economic benefits from the increased tax base, thousands of good paying jobs and affordable housing, of this 3.4 billion investment in Hamilton’s long awaited LRT, will not just be for the downtown area it will benefit the whole community.
