ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
I use the word on purpose. Corruption doesn’t always mean the mafia and cash envelopes. I mean corruption in the sense that a public contract is $x per kg of concrete.

A private contract, with transparency and competition, is $0.5x per kg of concrete.

The status quo is still corruption and it shows in all of our inflated costs covered up by secret contracts. I’d love to dive into the estimated costs for Phase 2 to see why they’re so high - but we can’t, on purpose.
