Statement by Leslie Addison

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

I'm very excited that the federal government and the province are finally ready to provide some of the funding for the much needed LRT in Hamilton. Not only will this be great for Hamilton growth, it is envirnmentally responsible. This has been in the works far too long and I urge you to vote for the LRT. Hamiltonians want this! We need the updated infrastructure in the downtown core and it is a gift to our city to receive this level of funding. This opportunity will not come again!!

Hi Doug,

We’ve met before. Back in 2014 I ran into you and your late brother in front of BMO field before a TFC game. The two of you were very friendly, Rob even gave me his card. I believed that you were in politics for the people. That is until I saw the news that the LRT in Hamilton was cancelled. You’ve taken away a great opportunity for my city. This transit line would bring jobs and economic growth to a city that sorely needs it. Please reconsider this decision and help support our city.

Sincerely,

Aaron Bennett
