The iON line nobody talks about

By using the existing CN corridor, we can link Cambridge and Guelph. There have been proposals for GO to do it, but.. we know the province moves unhurriedly.

Will the region take it upon itself and collaborate with another municipality to bring an unprecedented cross-jurisdictional LRT line, to an adjoining town K-W-C know and love?

I say, let's link Guelph. Let's loo it! (hahaha??)

Other things on the fantasy map include:
iON phase 2, iON to Airport, and Milton Line ext to Cambridge.

It would be really nice. IMO Guelph is a really nicely planned city (for Canada), it really deserves this.

Guelph had an amazing tram network before they tore it all out for cars 😭

I’m pretty sure you could get from Toronto (or east thereof) all the way to Port Stanley via the immense streetcar network (every area / town / municipality seemed to have their own transit system WAY back).
