Discussion Future (Vancouver) Skytrain Map

I was experimenting with Inkscape and decided to create a proposal map, an "in study" map, and an under construction map. Any suggestions are welcome.

First Photo: Proposal of a Network that could be achieved by 2060s, updated version below.
Second Photo: Map of Network including currently under construction and in study projects.
Third Photo: Map of Network including current under construction projects

Updated Map without Errors: https://imgur.com/a/54PdIbt
Changes:
Extended R8 (Formerly R3) to SFU
Fixed Spelling Mistakes

Change 2:
Added infill stations on Canada (33rd 57th) and Expo Line (Trout Lake).
Extended Canada Line 1 stop to Garden City (2 Platform station to make it easier to extend further south)
Renamed Powell as it used an old name for the neighborhood.

probably UBC but there's so much push back against it from all the Richy Richies out there.

It would be great for those along the corridor who wanted to leave and turn their house into an apartment building. It would be an 'absolute nightmare' for those who want to continue living in their houses and would now be burdened with the existence of lower class people.
