The drawing looks like he’s a Sikh (like me :>), he might have been prepping to make it for Langar (free community kitchen available to everyone) at the Gurudwra (Sikh Temple)

I’m just super weary of relying on Private-Public Partnerships. Canada has a good opportunity here to build up a nationally owned operator which maybe eventually can export its own expertise to other countries/jurisdictions.

Much like how China does for example!

Im a little less hopeful after reading the PM’s readout:

“Cadence has been carefully selected to not only co-design and build, but also to finance, operate, and maintain this project.”

“operate and maintain the project” feels, not good.

Curious to get @rmtransit.bsky.social’s thoughts on this

Also I’m curious what happens to VIA once this is built? Do they just get sidelined? If so, that’s unfortunate.
