As Premier Kath hinted a few months ago, the province is going to turn the GO Lakeshore into something like a rapid transit route. The minister, Glen Murray, announced today (Friday, June 28, 2013) that the trains will soon be running every 30 minutes instead of hourly. How will we pay for this? The minister says it’s all okay — taxes will pay for it. Of course, the Liberals at Queen’s Park are still nursing the idea of a 14 per cent HST. We all know how well that was received in Ottawa. So, what do we really want? Really need? GO trains every 30 minutes or a cap on the sales tax? We suspect we will be hearing abut it
30-minute GO trains — or a cap on the HST?
