Willie the Green promotes MORE huge government spending!
We need to provide more light rail to stop this insanity.

We need more light rail because it is so safe and environmentally sound.

I don’t want any toll on this bridge. Leave the existing bridge in place; it’s paid for.

The last thing we need is a toll bridge with light rail. The voters in Vancouver have already voted against it. A regular lane of traffic moves many times more people than a light rail line.

By the way, this bridge is not intended to have any more actual through lanes than the current bridge. They’re just counting entry/exit lanes as regular lanes.
