just to repeat what d_jeffery said, the Carling line was recommended as a streetcar line. Councillor Leadman went on CFRA saying "We had the peer review panel say this is a route we should be considering as well" but leaves out that it was for a streetcar, not for the main line.

An east-west Streetcar following Carling and Rideau/Montreal Road. The streetcar would utilize a mix of alignments including segregated right-of-way (e.g. median) and mixed traffic operation. The purpose of the LRT line was to provide opportunities for compact transit-oriented development within the greenbelt
