Excuse my rant...
You know, I have to say, I'm really tired of these idiots. I know it's been said a million times by people in this forum. But the HST campaign is showing us something: if you want action, organize and get it done.
With Translink's limited budget, why don't they go to corridors that want transit? Screw the west side. It's Skytrain or nothing for them. If they don't want it, lets build transit (skytrain or otherwise) for communities that do.
Until UBC students or some other group steps up to "out-protest" these NIMBY pie-in-the-sky morons, who cares. It's more trouble than it's worth at this point.
