| Danko, John-Paul | Yes | Area rating for transit is a long standing barrier to improving transit service to Hamilton's amalgamated communities. I support the immediate phase out of area rating for transit - along with an equal commitment to increasing transit service to those areas affected. |
| Wicken, Colleen | No | No but I do support dedicating a portion of area rating dollars to the betterment of transit as outlined above. I also feel that if each Councillor that receives area rating dollars dedicated 20% to Affordable housing and homelessness as well as another 5% to our food banks, we would make substantial progress in eliminating the extensive wait list and feeding our less fortunate. |
