At a cost that is much less than what would be needed to build an LRT system, Calgary council has approved a sweeping transitway for newly-designed buses that will whisk commuters downtown. Here in Toronto we may be sure this approach will cause a good deal of sniffing and peering down the nose. What hicks they must be. In this city, council much prefers to savour the psychedelic transit images summoned up by the drinking of our own “world class city” bathwater. Only subways of back-breaking cost will do for our legislators. CBC
