Ansem:
You seem to have a rather naive view towards transit politics in the city. And please remind me what is the singular effect of regieme change on transit in the say, oh last 25 years?
Let me answer it for you - projects getting cancelled and nothing got built. And if you think that there is more inertia for building a subway after you canned an LRT line, you are probably even more mistaken. As DavidH mentioned, no politician is crazy enough to force a new EA for a line like that (and if they do, I would be more suspicious of their intent for using it to delay and ultimately scrap projects, not replacing them with the "right choice") - not to mention the even more difficult act of scraping up yet another, more cost intensive tripartite funding agreement that necessitated multi-jurisdictional political maneuvering. If I were you, the SOS should pick their fights and focus on DRL and Eglinton instead.
