ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

Glad to hear the kid who got struck survived. Sad to hear there has nonetheless been an additional fatality. Hopefully Keolis/RoW has some good therapy services available for the LRV operators for what is going to be an inevitably long term problem: minimal safety, constant accidents and deaths every so often.

Why are you hyper-focussed on a tiny amount of death and injury related to the LRT? Why aren’t you agitating for grade-separating all our major car routes? Even if we did suddenly get a bunch of extra money, grade-separating the LRT wouldn’t save as many lives as a lot of other ways I can think of spending the money. Why is this so hard to understand? And why are you doing tHaT tHiNg with the capitalization? Could it be that you have no rational response to what I’m saying?
