Statement by Christopher Percy

The City's LRT plan has $3.4 billion in federal & provincial funding. Show your support for the plan.

Dear Councillor(s),

I'm writing today in support of the Hamilton LRT.

As anyone can see, our lower city is in dire need of positive change, and the B-Line LRT is the perfect opportunity to start. A green transit project that will improve neighbourhoods and livability.

Don't forget the Lower City! Please vote YES to this incredible Federal / Provincial investment and leave your mark on the future greatness of Hamilton

Other Ontario cities are moving forward with similar large transit projects, and we must keep Hamilton competitive if we are to thrive in the future.

Thank you,

Shane Percy
Ward 2

Cities with Hamilton's size and growth need appropriate public transit options. Other medium sized cities in Ontario are all planning or have built an LRT system (London, Ottawa, Waterloo, etc). Real estate will only get more expensive to acquire in the future, so building this now is the only thing that makes sense. I realize Hamilton votes NDP, but I hope the Ford government does the mature thing and invests in much needed infrastructure regardless.
