Statement by John Thompson

I strongly encourage Council to vote in Sept. 8 in favour of the LRT agreement with Metrolinx (Memorandum of Understanding. This could well be the most important action that Council will take during its tenure, and will dictate how this Council will be regarded by history. It is an opportunity to take Hamilton forward into a new pollution reduced future to help reduce the disaster of global warming that will face our children and grandchildren. Fufrthermore, LRT will provide a smooth, quiet, clean trip across Hamilton for riders, and stimulate millions of dollars of much needed development in the central area; just look at what has happened in Kitchener and other LRT cities.
