Stacey Lee Donohue started the topic Canada Line airport train in the forum
2015 MLA Convention on MLA Commons 11 years, 2 months agoVancouver-ians,
Does anyone know if the Canada Line airport train to downtown stops near the Fairmont Waterfront? I see a Waterfront stop, but I can’t quite tell if it’s the same area as the hotel. How long does the train take from the airport to the Waterfront stop (which looks like the last stop)?
Thanks!
Stacey

Common Core Standards Initiative Discussion Group on MLA Commons 11 years, 5 months agoI believe the link to Hillis’ comment in Margie’s most recent post may be truncated (and hence not work properly). Members of this group can reach Hillis’ comment by going to the “files” area of this group, where the PDF resides at the top of the list. I am also inserting a link to the PDF of Hillis’ comment here.
