We have watered down the original plans so much that avid transit proponents are not excited about it and anti-transit people will continue to try to kill it.

I honestly would prefer that, if the underpass portion of the LRT route was going to be the major cost and pain with the tunnel just say screw it and proceed with a single line from the airport to the Oxford/Wonderland mark. Then later on add a north/south route.
Short term it would not be ideal however it would still solve a major need and LTC could improve the North/South routes accordingly.
