Quebec and Montreal “could block Royalmount”

If the vagaries of city limits mean only TMR can decide to build Royalmount, the city of Montreal, the urban agglomeration and the Quebec government have the power to block the project – and should, according to urban studies expert Raphaël Fischler.

La Presse says Quebec is worried about the project’s impact on traffic, mostly. François Cardinal points out how such a project, single-handedly planned by TMR, makes a mockery of land use planning on the metropolitan scale. CTV also covers the good arguments against it.
