Michael explains why the Broadway Subway Project is insufficient, how the Arbutus station will already be over capacity on day one, and why completing the line to UBC is the only real solution. He outlines the project's sweeping benefits: thousands of new housing units, major greenhouse gas reductions, and billions in economic opportunity. He also shares what it takes to align governments, nations, and communities around a shared vision—and why your voice matters.\nLinks for this episodeTranscriptSkyTrain to UBC websiteLearn more about the UBCx planAbout Michael WhiteMario Canseco: Three in four Metro Vancouverites want SkyTrain extended to UBC, poll findsOpinion: UBC SkyTrain must be Metro Vancouver's next public transit priorityContact CarolContact JeevanFrom Here ForwardPodium Podcast Company","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/ENlau8ScqZWR8JSi4KOiwAZe_qqmcZHZjOdXPHbSrE0/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzI4NDY2LzE2OTk0/NzA1MTItYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
