ugh, these idiots again! Can we not have a group that supports rail to the valley and supports skytrain and new bridges? what is up with these one or the other idiots! Once they realize that the region needs all of these projects will i actually start paying any attention to them.

at first i was thinking - "Oh good, we need people to push for more rail in the valley." But instead we get people who become more like nimbys and will slow down such projects as skytrain, ugh, why are they so negative and short sighted! *pulling hair put*

Also their cost estimates of the light rail and deluxe light rail lines are bogus at best, they seem to forget re-locating facilities, planning, designing, the cost of buying land when needed, the OMC's, operational costs, rolling stock, etc... They make it sound like you simply slap some rails down on the road and you are done. well i guess we could do that if we want the world's shitiest and most basic tram system.

I just want a pro-LRT expansion group that does not spend all their energy pointing fingers and crying about Gateway and skytrain!
