Contradictory comments from Doug Ford on uploading the LRT
I was watching the Premier's press conference/Q&A he just had as he's in the city for the Canadian Chamber’s Future of Business Summit. A reporter asked him a question about uploading the LRT to the province (promised during the last election), to which he had an interesting contradictory answer.

My transcription:
Q: Premier, how did your meeting go with Mayor Mark Suttcliffe and did you discuss uploading the LRT?
A: Yeah actually I just said hello to him but we're going to sit down shortly. We're going to have discussions about uploading the LRT. We committed to it, we committed to uploading 174 as well which really that was part of the deal, the LRT wasn't. So we're focused on uploading 174. Again, taking the burden off the backs of the people of Ottawa and we're going to continue working with the mayor. We have a great relationship, a great partnership, he's a wonderful mayor.

Now I prefer not to turn this post all political or rage bait, but did I misunderstand his answer that it's not a priority/promise anymore? Did he misspeak? There has been a few posts recently in this subreddit about the silence on the LRT upload...
