Do you really think that Hudak will build the DRL?
Yup. That and the Yonge subway extension are the only thing he has a plan to pay for.

Both the DRL and the Scarborough subway are at the same early stage of the design process. But guess which project has been funded and will get built first? The SRT was already taken care of under the original LRT plan, so the DRL was top priority until Karen Stintz meddled with it.
"Top priority" my ass.
"Top priority" doesn't mean "cancel everything else"
Neither Scarborough nor the Relief Line have funding. Neither lines have EAs and engineering completed. The fact that Scarborough will be completed first has more to do with the fact that it's a smaller and less complicated project than the Relief Line. Just because the Relief Line is out #1 priority doesn't mean that we have to cancel or delay everything else to do it.

I never said "cancel everything else". The LRT was fully funded and would have started already, but then the plan changed. What should have been left alone has completely stolen everyone's attention from the DRL. The only reason Scarborough will now get subways first is because the SRT will crap out soon, and most importantly it's because of politics.

and the fact that no politicians wants to throw thousands of Scarborough commuters on shuttle buses for over 5 years which will paralyze the streets of Scarborough in the process

That's exactly correct. TBM won't reduce toad congestion. It will just help to mitigate it as our population grows.
