ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

Every target thus far has been missed, so given prior performance (which is only so valid a tool for judgement) all evidence is on your side here, the delays will continue.

Given that the current delay from several perspectives seems to be related to when Bombardier received the "specialized equipment" component and the work required to integrate that into our system, and that process now appears to be well under way, I'm very curious why you think the delays will continue another full year?

I'm not challenging this assertion, I have no reason not to believe you. I'm just genuinely interested in the volume of work that you see. Why isn't another 6 months enough to finish up? Is there specific details or is it mostly your gut? (I place a lot of value on smart peoples' guts.)
