“Cuz we’re good like that?”

Really.

A sign posted in Union Station by the province’s transit agency boasting of its achievements during the long-running renovation has raised the ire of the opposition Progressive Conservatives.

The sign is affixed to the construction hoarding, temporary wooden fencing, and brags, “We’re building you a 61,000 sq. ft state-of-the-art transit hub. ‘Cuz we’re good like that.”

“This is completely tone deaf to the reality of this project,” PC transportation critic Michael Harris said Wednesday.

He said the Union Station work was supposed to be done in 2014 for $640 million, but the construction is still on-going and the cost is up over $800 million.

“This is a project that was supposed to be done for the Pan-Am Games,” Harris said. “We’re talking about the Pan-Am Games that were held in Toronto (in 2015), not Peru in 2019.”

Metrolinx spokesman Anne Marie Aikins said the hoarding with the poster is not new, it was originally used in 2015..

“Metrolinx uses hoarding, including this 2015 hoarding, to keep customers and the public informed of work underway,” she said in an email to the Toronto Sun. “The hoarding is due to be replaced in the near future.”

Aikins said that Metrolinx continues to work with the City of Toronto on the Union Station renovations to the Bay Concourse.

“Many of the key projects, like York and Bay concourses were staged so as to keep Union Station fully open to customers and continue operations,” she added.
