ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
Yeah, Terry is a solid reporter. It kind of bugs me how much I hear from Outhit (and others) when the record does have solid journalists. Is it a matter of controversy being more widely talked about? Or do they just not get the same amount of space to these topics? Or...are those things linked?...Probably they're linked.

There absolutely are legitimate questions. I think the positioning of this issue should be that this is a failure of the P3 process. There is no technological issue here, the same thing would happen if a P3 private operator was operating buses and didn't equip them with snow tires or...whatever is needed to make buses work in winter.

I'm not philosophically opposed to P3s but I'm not impressed by the performance here.
