Which I would agree is way behind, and one of them are ready.

I took a look at the link you provided and I don’t actually see any doom and gloom there — just a discussion mostly focussed on the delays in the LRV deliveries, which are at this point a year behind the original schedule (all vehicles were supposed to arrive in the second half of 2016). Perhaps Canard saw other discussions earlier in the thread or in a different thread.

To be fair to Canard, there are one or two posters there that drop in to KW every few months with no context, make up opinions about the state of construction without being aware of the regular updates provided by the project team, and then state them as fact, which provides source material for other unaware people to respond.

The pace of transit development in the GTA informs their opinions.
