    Toronto Toronto | Eglinton Line 5 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Ford has already mentioned removing existing lanes on major streets outside of 212, so I wouldn't consider it exempt.

    Toronto Toronto | Eglinton Line 5 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    I'm gonna guess that Doug Ford's anti-bike lanes crusade (Bill 212) has put the kibosh on that, or at least ground it to a stop while the courts deal with Ford's appeal. The city wouldn't want to start spending money on something that's got a decent chance of being ripped out (be it the...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Can we stop with the right-wing talking points? There are few things on this planet that are 100% green. That said, pretty much every green energy solution is arguably cleaner in the long run. Willfully seeking to make the perfect the enemy of the good is toeing the line for billionaires.

    Sounds like Metrolinx; transparent as whole milk.

    Premier Doug Ford's Ontario

    It's not like constitutional amendments are particularly rare: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amendments_to_the_Constitution_of_Canada

    TTC: Streetcar Network

    I think the problem was that the tracks at that radius nearly touch the corners of building at the intersections, essentially making four giant patches of unusable/unsafe sidewalk at every four-way. If the streets were fully pedestrian-only, it might make marginally more sense, but the proximity...

    Premier Doug Ford's Ontario

    I want the feds to rewrite the "creature of the province" BS, or institute exemptions for large cities allowing them to have greater self-governance (like just about every other country does), well beyond the toothless CoTA.

    Premier Doug Ford's Ontario

    I'm pretty sure it's going to be entirely about the private jet market, and though Porter and others may get thrown a bone, he'll make some excuse about how (for the sake of Torontonian's sanity), they can't run more than a handful of jets between them in a given hour. In other words, this'll...

    Premier Doug Ford's Ontario

    It would be really awesome if this clueless label goblin stopped pretending to be Mayor of Toronto.

    Bloor-Yonge station is one of the hottest stations on the line. If a pipe were to explode there, it’d be from steam.

    I'm gonna guess FIFA has something to do with it.

    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    While the image is funny, KimDotCom is an effing terrible person.

    Toronto Toronto | Eglinton Line 5 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    The massive snow melt meant everything was dirty yesterday. Stations entirely indoors had soaking wet and dirty platforms. The solid white doesn’t help of course.

    Alto - High Speed Rail (Toronto-Quebec City)

    Not at all. I grew up on a farm. Still had friends in and regular visits to the Melancthon/Amaranth area when the wind farm was put in. I got to hear the “environmental concerns”; the same people complaining about the environment in order to try and stop the turbines, were the same people...
