They wouldn't switch. The government wants the most effective and less expensive system available. If that means a tram line going East and connecting at Saint-Michel station to serve more people at a lesser price they might consider it. The idea of imposing a transfer is pretty stupid though.

The extension was announced by the PQ in 2012 and is now being delayed with the Liberals. Although I think something will be completed before the end of 2020.
