Nothing about the financing method, the Private Public Partnership and the non compete clause against public transit. Or the 99 years contract on which public money is paying a private operator.

If the REM is the future of Canadian Transit Expansion, it will be at the detriment of public transit agencies, and transit will become for profit only.

The tech itself would be fine if it wasn't such private/public bullshit.
Public costs with private profits should be illegal af.
