Since their objections to it were very similar to those much maligned objections of some DT Brampton residents....I don't think so.
The NIMBY objections in PC just came earlier (as the project was unveiled to Mississauga much earlier) and they got their voices heard by their council before this project had much of a profile....so they got a bit of a pass relative to their northern counterparts.
Good points. Although I think the geographic situations are a bit different. In PC, you have the GO station on the 'near side' of the village centre, so the section beyond the station didn't have a regional impact if it was chopped off. In Brampton, the GO station is on the far side of the village centre, and therefore the LRT has to go through it in order to accomplish its primary connectivity goal.
If the GO station was at Main & Steeles, I don't think the outcry about the LRT not reaching downtown Brampton would be nearly as high as it is now.
