True that there are substantial numbers of people who commute from our region to the aforementioned places (hence the GO-train), but the overwhelming majority still commute internally.

In conclusion, I don't see how your statement holds much relevance.



You're dead right about that. However, Edmonton built its LRT when it was around 500,000 people. I'm not sure how well it did in the beginning, but they sure as hell need it now.
Started to write an essay here but I realized its not worth it.

Time will tell who was wrong ,and who was right.
