As I mentioned earlier, Mrs Dunne, in her adjournment speech yesterday, which was designed to convince us that no-one in Canberra wants light rail, went to great lengths to have us believe that. She knows it is not true. I wonder if they would care to read any positive feedback they received in their little postcard campaign. I will not hold my breath.
I provide some balance to Mrs Dunne’s speech last night by highlighting some of the positive comments that have been posted on the Canberra Times website since Monday. Some of these comments include:
Rethinking the ACT model to parallel Ottawa’s approach, think about a Lake Burley Griffin circuit as the main hub and take a branch line to Queanbeyan.
This was posted by “All for it now”. Another is:
Great initiative. Let’s get on with it.
It was posted by Michael. Another is:
It’s nice to see some actual long-term infrastructure planning from a government—any government—in this country. It’s what we need.
That was posted by Mr Burns. (Time expired.)
Question resolved in the affirmative.
The Assembly adjourned at 7.14 pm until Tuesday, 17 November 2015, at 10 am.
