Exactly, I was going to point that out but I wanted to to keep my post to a reasonable length. I have never gotten the sense (from day one) that Jennifer Keesmaat ever cared about transit user or even developing plan for the transit users. Her vision of things (which you can clearly see in that segment) has nothing to do with actual public transit or public mobility. I really don't know what even qualifies her as expert on public transit. Yes, she is an Urban planner, I know that, but are Urban planners really the key people we need for transit planning? to me, Transit planning is more about economics and logistics but i could be wrong. I will never forget the day (back at that time) when she stated that elevated transit lines was bad for Toronto because it creates shadows!
Imagine that? What would she do with all the shadows created by those downtown office towers 
At least with David Miller can we can be thankful for what he delivered in one or two other areas. The approval to build BMO field was his baby. Without that: No U20 FIFA World cup in 2007, No MLS team in Toronto, No Championship in 2017, and No FIFA world cup in TO this summer. We owe that to David Miller.
