I don't read it as she's particularly advocating the Parkway route, merely rationalizing if it is chosen (electric trains are better than diesel buses) and she does mention that the Byron Richmond alignment would serve more people, and simply informing people that it would cost more and cause more of a disruption. In all fairness she prefaces the points with the fact that not a lot of information is out there to make residents aware of the choices. Leadman only seems to sell the Carling alignment.

I've overheard Leadman suggest too many bizarre opinions in passing for me to even consider voting for her. One time I think she mused that maybe they should ban parking on Richmond Road during rush hour so that it could be used as an extra traffic lane just like Bank Street in the Glebe. Yikes. I completely lost respect for her during the Westboro Station/Golden Ave closure issue.
