The ARTM, Quebec Transport Ministry and the City of Montreal are slated to hold public consultations starting Tuesday on proposals for public transit that will affect multiple boroughs and surrounding municipalities.

Here's the recent history of the proposal, how it has changed and where it could go from here.
