Step 1: Stop The Hemmoraging

Apply Direct Pressure:

Mayor Bob took the first steps this morning in attempting damage control and containment of his unravelling North-South Light Rail plan (see below entry).

This from CFRA News:

"Alain Carle is no longer the head of transit services. Carle took over the top job at OC Transpo from the retiring Gordon Diamond less than a year ago. It's not known yet whether Carle quit or was fired."

(Word from inside suggests the latter)

Do NOT Attempt To Clean The Wound:

It would seem that Mr. Chiarelli is attempting to quickly identify a scapegoat for this fiasco. It is, indeed, an embarrassing situation to have develop in the crucial phase of the election. With little time to repair such a complex problem, the best thing to do is point and blame.... right?
