Statement by Michael Brown

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

Please make this happen!! We have the funding and made all the necessary plans and time to initiate this potential growth.

We (Hamilton) always "talk" about being a great city, take a look at what the rest of Canada's great cities have.. (Edmonton, Calgary, Ottawa and Toronto). They have a LRT system in place because they know it develops growth and opportunity. We (Hamilton) have an opportunity and in a position to really make a difference and show the rest of Canada that we're not just steel town anymore.

I want to start being labeled as Steel "City", not town!!

Wake up people!!

I completely support the new Hamilton LRT plan and urge Hamilton City Council to endorse it with the overwhelming majority vote it deserves. I am pleased to see the unwavering support of all the city's anchor institutions. The benefits will accrue to our environment and to all the residents of the City of Hamilton, not just downtown residents. I hope Hamilton will live up to its aspiration as an ambitious city by seizing this one-time opportunity.
