Except that money hasn't been forthcoming. BRT or nothing, so we get nothing, or more so, we get a half completed BRT line.

Maybe after this supposed election, Liberals might fund it

The Fiberals would have to get elected first.

I know, but it'd be a better investment than stealth fighters

[roccerfeller]

agreed, especially for the long term.

But thats my personal op, there are people who can argue the other side convincingly too

You could've taken the 100 instead - this'll take about half the time you stated.

EDMONTON (Lat. 53° 34'N Pop. 782,439 (city) 1,155,500 (est. metro)) - The northernmost metro area in North America with a population of over 1 million.

Cool tag line you have but you could have said 200,000 people and you still would have been right.. Or the farthest city over 200K people that is a 7-8 hour drive to the US border Or how about the furthest International airport outside a city in Canada... Kidding aside, I like Edmonton...
