aGENT Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 You go on and on about this war vs the north and pulling out of translink/metro vancouver and starting your own little country. That's fun to pretend, but it is totally unrealistic, I have no idea why you keep going on about it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inane Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I love how you mention the Evergreen line like it's a bothersome fly on your shoulder rather than the multi-ton elephant squatting on your chest it is I'm sure Ron can comment more accurately as to precisely what changes there are but I'd say the Canada and Evergreen lines are certainly not small potatoes. Is there anything even remotely of the scale of even one of those projects planned for SOTF? Also, newsflash... there's an increase in frequency/service hours EVERYWHERE this week. It's called back to school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inane Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 That's funny, SOTF mayors keep having meetings about doing EXACTLY that...are they too being "unrealistic"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Similar to how you seem to be ignoring the multi billion dollar highway expansion? I know you want to pretend those are two totally different things, but they aren't. And it's not like everyone notf is going to use this line in Coquitlam. I know I will likely never use it, but I'm not whining about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronthecivil Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Actually yes, other than the line to coquitlam, what expansion notf is there? I'm also sure you're well aware of all the increases in frequency and service hours sotf that started this week... right? http://www.vancouver...8745/story.html And you can't untangle transit from cars. You can try if it makes you feel better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 lol. I can do the same thing. I say that the mayors have been having meetings to talk about founding the empire of White Rock and annexing Blaine while arming the peace arch with lasers. You go find the proof that I'm full of crape or just keep burying your head in the sand... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inane Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Yeah except the LMGTFY link I posted actually has numerous references to SOTF mayors meeting to discuss transit. Not that you're being willfully obtuse... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inane Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 The same reason a lot of Albertans complain about Quebec, the one way flow of tax dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronthecivil Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I guess I think your energies would be better spent fighting a different fight. But if you want to shout at the moon, go ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 You said they regularly meet. So prove it. You made the claim, you back it up. Otherwise i'm calling bs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Shout at the moon? Nope. Have a rational conversation with the mayor and explain why the business case for translink will always be to tax our community while not providing any hope of service improvements? You bet! Give him some excellent ideas of what to let the mayor of delta know about how the Port Mann bridge is going to gridlock his community? Perhaps if he is interested. There's no reason to keep contributing to a system that only wants to apply sticks in the form of taxes to alter our behaviour but refuses to provide carrots in the form of alternatives.
