I have been to both Kwantlen and Langara and the LSU does way more to help students than KSA does, they deserve the publicity!

When the line was being planned, Richmond city council was in our corner for the Lansdowne station to be named Richmond-Lansdowne. We heard at one point that it was a done deal. I guarantee one of two things happened: 1. Richmond bargained away their position on that for something else, or 2. Kwantlen's chronically inept marketing team screwed it up. The second option is more likely. Either way, Ken Hardie is full of crap. It's highly unlikely that Langara just got a gimme because they're "a destination" or "more association with the location". They probably earned it by schmoozing Translink better than Kwantlen is capable of. What a joke.
