Miller and Giambrone, hardly right-leaning, rejected conversion after floating that trial balloon.
But the bigger obstacle is that there are more than enough suburban Councilors (and some MPPs) who still support Sheppard, and want to finish it. While that is likely not possible in the current political climate, those suburban Councilors will, at the very least, use Sheppard as a bargaining chip in future transit expansions. And considering they tend to be pro-subway/anti-LRT, you'd have to give them something really good to agree to a Sheppard subway conversion.
The old "seamless" Finch-Sheppard LRT idea -- not seen in this section for quite awhile.
IF Hudak and Tory gets elected all bets are off.
