I say "no", but only because I have a better idea.

Get BioWare to endorse the subway line, rename it the "Shepard" line, and promote the heck out of the upcoming Mass Effect 3 video game with it. Private enterprise at work, man.

-- Steve'll even point out that it's a Canadian company, so folks can wave tiny Canadian flags at the opening.

PS: I'd also want to rename one of the stops, "Wrex." I'd link to a video showing why, but the office abacus doesn't handle YouTube.

You couldn't get more than $10 million doing that. A subway line costs $300 million per kilometre.

So we get a thirty-three meter long subway line. Who needs any more?

The people have spoken.

I like this idea, 33-meters and all.
