I would have thought their motivation was fairly clear.....they want an LRT plan replaced with a subway....given how easily that was achieved in the case of the RT replacement, they are likely confident that they can succeed.
You're confusing the end goal with the rationale - why would someone who is not a transit rider at all want to replace LRT with subway? The want is transparent - the why isn't, and that's the question beyond the obvious answer you've provided.
AoD
Speaking of that.... Chances are that we'll have a Liberal minority or majority in a few hours. The cancelation of the SELRT just became far note unlikely.
Sorry, perhaps I misunderstood your point......I think the answer is equally obvious....they think their lives are better with subway transit than lrt transit....it really is that simple.
And how would it make their lives "better", as a non-transit rider?
AoD
I have no idea.....but asking me how it does, or does not make their life better, is not a worthwhile exercise....clearly they think it will and that is what needs to be addressed.
few hours....is the election today? did I miss my chance to vote?![]()
Considering upgrading will result in additional government expenditure, you might not want an answer, but I think the rest of us would want to know since wie will be paying for it directly and/or indirectly.

Because subways raise property values. TO has it dead on and we have been saying it, the BD extension sets a very bad precedent. Even if the Liberals get in again, Wynne said she will work with council so city council can still change it over to subway.You're confusing the end goal with the rationale - why would someone who is not a transit rider at all want to replace LRT with subway?

Good point, because there's virtually no chance the Liberals would go from LRT to subway.Speaking of that.... Chances are that we'll have a Liberal minority or majority in a few hours. The cancelation of the SELRT just became far note unlikely.
