"WATERLOO REGION — The region has hired Mathieu Goetzke, a current VP with Metrolinx, as its new commissioner for transportation services.
Goetzke will lead a team that will prioritize the resident experience, while building neighbourhoods that are safe, accessible and healthy, a news release from Waterloo Region said on Thursday."

Definitely newsworthy.
Quite frankly, given Metrolinx's mediocre performance, I don't think that's a particularly inspiring qualification.
But working in as the Chief Planner for Lille in France is a *lil* more inspiring.
Still, only time will tell how this hire will impact the region...but I don't think you can get more regressive than our current transportation engineering team.
