I've seen on the street news interviews of riders waiting at bus stops on Eglinton East, complaining that they don't know how they will manage to get to work if it snows since they will have to wait at an above ground LRT platform, rather than an underground subway station......
This same rider was getting on at Victoria Park and heading to the Yonge subway, and was just outraged that Ford's all underground plan was no longer going to be built, and it would make her trip an absolute nightmare, as if the hand full of intersections between VP and the tunneled section were going to make a difference of more that a few minutes while not being a drastic improvement over her current bus ride.
So yes, the objections to surface LRT are that irrational.
They should go to Rosedale and Davisville more often
