I believe you, but I also believe Tory is more likely to cave on subways. Of course GO RER = SmartTrack so it looks like what he says will be built soon.
I actually think Tory might just change tracks (pun intended) on the Scarborough subway post-election, if he can get a really solid committment from the province on implementing RER as close to his SmartTrack vision as possible.
But no point saying that out loud now with Scarborough votes at stake. Much easier to run for re-election with SmartTrack on the way, even if you cancelled the subway and extended the LRT. Also, he needs some kind of bargaining chip with the province. Passing on the subway to pay for SmartTrack might work.
