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

Statement by David Wootton

Please, do not ruin Hamilton's future by not voting to receive $3.4 B. What kind of city or councillors would ever vote to not receive this one-time gift. The repercussions of not receiving the money would harm this city for decades to come. Many of us would be downright ashamed of the city and its administration! Hamilton just saved $10 M each year by unloading the entertainment facilities. The $ 20 M for transportation would amount to $ 10M extra on the nearly 600 000 residents. Why is it that some on council are so negative that they do not see all of the benefits of the L R T. I need not list them as you already know them. Is Stoney Creek, for example, not smart enough to realize that the L R T would be extended further along Queenston Road and eventually connect them to GO transit as well as McMaster and downtown???
