    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    Jon Stewart on the Trump admin blatantly lying about the execution of Pretti. His closing thoughts are pretty devastating. This is how they lie to us when they know we've seen the truth. Imagine how they lie when there's no evidence to contradict them.

    Mississauga Toronto | Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    The stop spacing could be identical on Hurontario with high floor LRVs. All you need is a slightly higher platform and a slightly longer ramp.

    Mississauga Toronto | Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I think we started from the position that Bombardier makes low floor LRVs in Ontario and we want jobs there, so build the line using low floor LRVs. I think you give far too much credit to the conception of recent transit projects in Ontario to make appropriate and well considered engineering...

    Mississauga Toronto | Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    That's only true in the absence of proper stations with level boarding. High floor vehicles can have improved interior circulation, as well as the possibility of more and wider door openings.

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    Why not copy the 407 scheme to give a handful of free trips per time period for those with low incomes?

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    I think it would make people re-consider taking jobs on the other side of the GTA for a couple thousand dollars a year more. Employers would be even more incentivized to locate their workplaces in transit accessible areas to draw on the biggest talent pool. As it is, I would just flat out refuse...

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    You would have to pay a lot for that stretch of the 407 because dropping tolls on it would cause substantial congestion, severely degrading the value proposition of a free-flowing highway at peak times, when the 'free' 407 backs up a dozen KM onto the tolled stretch.

    PM Mark Carney's Canada

    He won't even impose the 100% on anything.

    GO Transit Electrification | Metrolinx

    It's dumb until you recognize that Metrolinx has serious challenges electrifying the stretch around Union, which would make battery operation quite useful. They have been suggesting in their recent rumblings that this might be the plan.

    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    If Trump dies in office, which seems quite likely, it will be interesting to see if they try to autopen a bunch of pardons, which usually come as a president leaves office.

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    Sunday should be interesting.

    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    There is no point taking Trump seriously. 100% tariffs are an empty threat.

    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    They have to be trolling, to know there are no penguins in the Northern hemisphere.

    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    Trump can get f*cked. He is the coward who hid from the draft.

    Russian-Ukrainian War (2022- )

    Not sure it is bad intelligence so much that everyone in Russian military intelligence were just bullsh!tting to their superiors. There was no incentive to correct BS. Now, Putin maybe should have been less gullible to believe it would be so easy. It makes one wonder if this war would even have...
