ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

Because this is a democracy?

But seriously folks, … Tongue

Point taken. However, I expect an investigation into the overrun incident will be required. So they can’t really avoid that part. What they can do is avoid attempting to hide information from the public; and viewing it strictly from an appearance/PR perspective, they can especially avoid appearing to hide information that is already out there and therefore can no longer be hidden. I liked how the news reports said something like “we asked them for this footage [that we are broadcasting right at this second] and they wouldn’t give it to us.” To me it made MAX look like a bunch of idiots in a way that a single zero-fatalities buffer overrun incident (or even a more serious incident) doesn’t necessarily.
