Politically, Hamilton is known for producing groundbreaking, colourful and left-wing politicians^{[citation needed]}. Locally, though, the big political stories have included the controversial amalgamation of Hamilton with its suburbs in 2001, the destruction of green space around the Red Hill Valley to make way for the Red Hill Creek Expressway, and plans to build a Light Rail Transit line in the city.
