It's not like the area WOULDN'T be served by LRT or anything... It would mean that the worst case scenario someone living at the intersection of Du Bois and Bilburry would have to walk 1km to Place d'Orleans station OR 700m to Orleans Blvd station... Is that too much to ask?

Less spending on useless stations = more money for further extensions.

How much money would 3 stations save?
Above ground? About 120 million. These are just EA studies, so nothing confirmed (in terms of station locations) yet.
