      Good point. The province should tax oil and gas companies to fund the construction of good public transit.

            That’s already an argument against using the lrt in winter. Not saying it’s not a problem - smoking meth in the entrance of lrt stations is not cool. But using that as an excuse to not provide services for everyone is peak conservatism. So yeah, they would totally use that.
