I highly doubt you will ever get a personal letter that was thought out as a reply. Every party just a standard response to every question. This goes for all levels of government everywhere in the world.
It is why I never email or send a letter to a political person because I already know the answer I'm going to get before I do.

This is why this whole exercise is a bit of a sham. I myself have spoken to the Translink Board as a delegate in three separate meetings, had my fair share of Letters to the Editor articles published, and written so many letters and nothing happens (well, I did help ensure the guided bus Irisbus Civis is off the table for Evergreen back in 2004). But at the end of the day, we are powerless as taxpaying citizens to the whims of these people who are really more to look out for themselves than to serve the public.
