Daniel Green
Scientist and deputy-leader of the Green Party

Daniel Green, scientist & deputy-leader of the Green Party will speak about the proposed sky-train project.

The Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec (CDPQ), our pension fund, announced its plans to build a $5.5 billion driverless commuter train system that will reach the outskirts of Montreal’s suburban communities to provide a rail transit link to the Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport.

Is the Metropolitan Electric Network or REM worthwhile? Critics say the proposed light rail system misses mark. At this conference, public speaker, Daniel Green, will demonstrate what is wrong with this project and whether we should go ahead with it as it stands.

Please join us for an exciting evening of information & discussion!
