Ottawa Citizen Poll fails to mention that Doucet has a good solution to transit concerns

A poll for the Ottawa Citizen finds that transit concerns are the top voter issue. Unfortunately the Citizen fails to mention that Clive Doucet is the only candidate articulating a transit plan that provides an alternative to a tunnel.


Surface light rail is inexpensive, will pay for itself, and is cheaper per user as the system grows. Also it is quiet and it is environmentally friendly.

A tunnel will add no new transit service for 20 years, will provide no alternatives or relief for the suburbs and will provide no new revenue. All of this for $2.1 billion plus! This won’t keep you taxes down! There is an alternative. For more details see the O-Train video on Clive Doucet’s web site http://clivedoucet.com/en/video-riding-o-train-clive.
