Both have not happened for the past 8 to 13 years with the Liberals in power (mostly majority). I would say that "both looks increasingly unlikely by 2030 especially if Liberals get another majority.
Not saying they will build them. And certianly might be no more than another ploy for votes or a push to knock the Liberals over the financial cliff when they clearly have no sustainable plan. But aernt the new Ford-Brown conservatives pro DRL, Sheppard, & SSE?
I would say this bodes well for atleast keeping the file moving forward no matter who wins. If the Cons go in hard enough you'll likely see fringe downtown votes start to slide Conservative just based on hope and unless the Liberals find another asset to sell off.
You may not Like Rob Ford or his Politics. But one thing is certain before he completely spiraled into the ground he went hard to deliver on his promises at all costs (Right or wrong, lets not debate his platform please. Its not the point). The point is that the Liberals are great at Politics and voter persuasion but dont have a rack record anyone can trust.
I dont trust the Conservatives for transit based on previous history of doing nothing and cancellations. But its may be worth a term to see what the new Conservative admin is willing to offer to regain power? Truly unfortunate the NDP has provided little to this debate as of yet.
