Falcon's proposal is on 100th, not 104th. I think it's more of an idea that rapid transit should be extended to Guildford to Fleetwood than a proposal. It's just one possible solution to consider (and not the best one, I think).

I'm hoping for an eventual three-tiered rail transit system in Surrey and Langley, with Langley on a very-limited-stop system to Scott Road along the interurban ROW. Surrey's grid (they weren't metric back then, it's a half-mile grid just like most of Metro Vancouver) is basically perfect for light rail with stations every mile or half mile. There are few intersections, so the difference in speed between light rail and skytrain is negligible, while the cost isn't.
