Do it right and put the density in Vancouver where people are closer to their downtown jobs, their friends, their entertainment, their schools, and the beaches instead of making them commute to and from the valley. A condo in Chilliwack isn't a like-for-like substitute for one in Vancouver even if you put in the best train in the world.

The truth is we need both, we need more density in the city and in the valley and we have needed a decent train system to Hope since the 90's
