ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

I love how she talks about her area of Preston being a small quite villiage.  Then at the end of the article they quote her saying..

""This is a really busy area to start with," she said. "To put another kind of transit in here is just beyond realistic."

Ok, is it quite or is it really busy ?

Don't you understand?!  It's whatever it has to be at any given time to support an argument opposing change!

Change is the real enemy, and if we only hope hard enough, things will stay exactly the same as they've ever been long enough to die in peace (because she's not 73 and alive when there were LRTs in town before).

*sigh*...it's a sad irony that the era of bad planning saw fit to jam so many bad choices down people's throats that the backlash is preventing any good choices from being made.
