They're committing political suicide and they don't even know it. They will never get another vote if they continue fighting
against the hand that feeds them. However, I will say that I do enjoy the artwork but the business hilariously has egg on their face now.
Regarding this whole phase 1,2,3 mess.... From a regular-degular citizen's point of view, this is a project where I would actually hate to see done phases because it is such a simple extension that we should avoid further inflation and have it done all the way to Langley. Not only that but the extension would be such a vital game changer for Langley and the Metro-Vancouver region.
The only reason that it should be done in phases is due to federal funding. Of course if I had a choice of extending the Millennium line to UBC or the Expo line to Langley, I'm obviously going to vote for extending the Millennium line.
