Not a fan of his stance on the green line but this would be a silver lining if he wins the mayor’s seat. Very interesting to see him make the comparison to the stampede (3x the economic benefit!). Pretty clear he sees the $$ signs… gotta pay for that new arena somehow!

This would be the worst way to do an airport LRT connection. Airport LRTs are used significantly by people working at the airport. To create a system where Calgary transit and airport link are operated by separate entities really undermines one of the primary benefits of an airport link.

In addition I’d assume that any Train would ensure to obtain a non-compete agreement from the city ensuring they are the only option for train transit from the airport as having two services would canabaloze each other.
