I didn’t see any of it, but I like that little quotation from the judge. I’m a bit confused about one thing however — how is our system not the first instance of what Metrolinx is building? That is, don’t they have tracks — ours? I thought our vehicles were essentially identical to the ones that will be used in Toronto, and I actually was under the impression that our first vehicle was essentially the pilot vehicle for the whole order.
Also, how is Bombardier not very late and therefore in violation? Or is the dispute mostly over the impact of the lateness, which I agree is very little since there are no tracks in Toronto on which the vehicles could be run?
Metrolinx doesn't have any tracks, Waterloo does and the two have very little to do with each other.
