Council will be voting on the operations of the LRT this Wednesday and I'll be asking my colleagues to vote down staff's recommendation so I can introduce the motion that Councillor @NrinderWard3 and I tried to put forward in January. Keep transit public. #HamOnt @keeptransitpub

A recent survey found that the majority of Hamiltonians would prefer to see the Hamilton Street Railway (HSR) operate the city's future light-rail transit system rather than a private contractor. Click on the photo below to read more. chch.com/majority-of-ha…

Not surprised that 67% of those surveyed support the City operating LRT. I’ll be bringing back my amendment to recommend just that to Metrolinx at the April 17 meeting of the General Issues Committee. I hope my Council colleagues will support keeping transit public. #HamOnt

@alexzafer This will not delay things in any way. We’re required to make a recommendation to Metrolinx. What we recommend is up to us and what they approve is up to them. The only delay so far has been the Mayor pushing this forward by about a month + the cybersecurity incident.



"The late February automated telephone interview survey, conducted over land line and cellphones, shows 67 per cent of respondents would prefer a HSR-run rapid transit line..." #HamOnt #KeepTransitPublic thespec.com/news/council/s…
