See you misunderstand what "community consultation" means to some people
community consultation is now the new nimby
You use "community feedback" to say "we are opposed to this being near us therefore cancel the project"
take for example the leslieville, There litterally was a question in the AMA webinar a few weeks ago
"If enough people are against this project will you cancel the ontario line running beside the GO tracks"
I know this thread has bashed on the leslieville complaints over and over again, but at some point you gotta say "okay there are now sound walls and we paid every business owner 5x their annual income we good now?"
The rail yard thing is even dumber, Metrolinx has already said they negotiated with the 5 or so businesses to move them, you dont hear the businesses complaining, The people are litterally complaining for them
