Skytrain Colours

With the changes to coming to Skytrain, I don't understand why Translink officials did not change the Canada Line signage from blue to red. It is super strange and confusing to have two blue transit lines on a three line system. The Expo Line is already blue and the only reason the Canada Line is blue as well is because the federal Conservatives were in power when the line was opened and it was part of their aggressive campaign to transform Canada and market public works projects in blue, the conservative colour (think of the blue volunteer jackets at the Vancouver Olympics). The Canada Line should be red for reasons obvious to all of us, except Translink officials and Conservative hacks.

It's not like anyone knows them by colour.

Does it really fucking matter? Just like the guy above said, "It's not like anyone knows them by colour." Some people need to think before they speak...

Translink needs to get rid of those shitty old cars on the expo line from 1985. Those things are toast.
