ION Phase 2 - Cambridge's Light Rail Transit
Someone my mother used to work with was looking for work and was told by the person on the phone "Oh, that job's in Cambridge; you won't want to work there" - not realizing she was from Cambridge.

In a job interview in Kitchener, the interviewers made fun of Cambridge to my face.

When the public board wanted to close a high school, Southwood and PHS were on the chopping block; no schools in Kitchener or Waterloo were threatened.

The region has been around since the 70s, but it took until about 15 years ago to get a bus from Cambridge to Kitchener; you had to walk from the top of Shantz Hill to Sportsworld.

We've been trying to get (CP at first but now) GO trains for forty years with little pressure put on CP from the region to make it happen; Kitchener asks once and they get two a day.

Can't imagine why people in Cambridge are a bit miffed.
