ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

I doubt the agreement was that the region hands over trains and washes their hands of it, there was almost certainly specs about associated equipment. I can see ice scrapers falling through the cracks, with contract ambiguity about who's responsible.

I believe we’ve discussed this. The contract provides that the system shall be capable of continuing to operate in conditions such as those we have. Therefore, as far as I’m concerned, they have to buy whatever equipment is required in order to meet the contract.

But who knows. I assume the PPP contract is cleverly written to avoid actually committing them to much of anything.
