Good chance I'm mistaken on 75, but:

What is the purpose of the BRT - whom does it serve that is not already served by the existing transit system? Who is the primary political force behind this (i.e. to whose opponent in the next election should I be making donations)?
Thanks.

It's very naive to think that people will actually pack their 2 kids onto a bus to go to HP - just never happening. But that's irrelevant - I think the main concern is the Glenmore/14 Street interchange, which will be even more of a PITA with 2 extra lanes feeding into it and buses that will have the right of way.
Go rich people! Why should I put up with 5 years of inconvenience so some MRU student can take one bus to school instead of two?

Yes, yes - that is fine in theory, but it all feeds into the existing and not expanding 14th Street/Glenmore off-ramp which becomes even more of a cluster**** than it already is.
And strictly from my selfish POV, getting out of my neighbourhood and going anywhere is going to be miserable for years, unless I take a major detour. So, **** the MRU students.
