It’s hard to play sleight of hand with a calendar year- or so we thought.
McNab-Braeside Deputy Mayor Scott Brum says the number of different versions of when the Highway 17 twinning project will get underway is leaving him dizzy.
And the Deputy Mayor says the only difference from diagrams of maps on display is the originals from 2016 would have yellowed by now- not good optics.
The government of the day was led by Liberal Kathleen Wynn. Its Minister of Transportation was Steven Del Duca.
Our then local MPP, John Yakabuski was Transportation Critic when in Opposition; upon being named to Cabinet when the Doug Ford Government was elected, local expectations had never been higher.
Brum addresses the “safe riding” theory that’s on voters minds- as well as their lips.
The McNab-Braeside Deputy Mayor says it may be difficult for the current MPP to tackle the defeatist culture the four-laning delays have prompted.
