I have a feeling that the departure of Dianne Watts from serving as chair of the Mayors’ Council on Regional Transportation is the first step towards major reorganization of Translink that will come over the next year.
By the way, look for Watts’ replacement to be Port Moody Mayor Joe Trasolini.
But getting back to the issue at hand, Watts’ departure is something that is completely understandable in light of the fact that in typical municipal fashion, the local leaders are forced to bend into uncomfortable positions based on provincial negligence, indifference, or both.
