Fleury is still trying to sell minor tinkering with bus schedules as some sort of massive improvement for which his ward should be grateful. He is all-in on the Montreal Road plan which is going to downgrade transit on that corridor once it's in service, and never once took transit users' concerns seriously. He has no ambition to improve transit in Vanier, and along with Nussbaum screwed up the bus service on Beechwood a few years ago in order to satisfy the cyclists. The promised mitigation measures, surprise, surprise, never materialized. The only underground transportation dream plan Fleury is pushing for in his ward is the "truck tunnel", which would kill any possibility of ever extending underground transit east into Vanier/Overbrook. Enjoy those buses, poors!
Menard pays lip service to transit on Bank, and pushed for the reconfig of the Bank Street bridge without any consideration for transit impacts until after the fact, and has only committed to maybe thinking about kind of doing the absolute bare minimum possible elsewhere on Bank some time in the future to help undo that transit impact. And he's another urban councillor who is making zero effort to ensure that the urban core gets anything out of future transit plans.
If it's not a bike, they really don't care.
