Statement by Mark Cripps

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

Embrace the future... reject those who would rather live in the past. Change is never easy but there is a reason the province decided to invest in Hamilton's future. Our city is considered a key economic driver for the future prosperity of the province. If we reject this investment, in a way we are telling the current government and any future governments that we're not interested in being considered among those communities who will lead Ontario's future.

Dear Premier Ford,

I am writing to show my support of the long-approved Hamilton LRT transit project. I believe that this has been and will continue to be a transformative investment in both Hamilton and for the Province.

This project was within a few short months of having the RFP’s submitted and has already had so much work completed on it, ie studies, planning, purchasing of properties along the route , that to throw this all away does not make sense.

This province needs you to follow-through and let the RFP’s come in and for this investment to go through to completion.

Respectfully submitted,

Deb Avetissian
