    New Streetcars

    I'm not talking about reducing frequency of stops. I'm talking about having stations so the LRTs can have someplace to hold if they start getting bunched up. Right now, with buses, a bus can hold at a traffic light or it can pass other buses if they don't have to make a stop. Of course the...

    Bomb Hoax at the ROM

    I'd like to get all artsy on him. Send him to a hardcore jail and see him get raped by other inmates. Yeah, that'll be some performance art.... Pranks != Art

    New Streetcars

    I'm weary of the implementation of dedicated lanes... Are the lanes going to be newly built across the city? As posted on other threads, we expect these vehicles to go the full span of the city, not just the core. If they are newly built, how will that affect traffic and in much narrower...

    Potshots at the TTC

    Of course TTC sees its riders as burdens... a lot of immigrants that don't speak english very well and riders that make demands of drivers/workers. Yesterday i saw a shameful scene at Young/Bloor where an elderly Oriental woman was asking an African TTC woman worker for directions and she...

    Post: Toronto mulls bottled-water tax

    I admit to buying bottled water fairly often. Going to class, on the road...etc. I do try and reuse those water bottles as much as possible (usually till they get stinky) and recycle the bottles but more often than I'd like it to happen, I lose the bottles during transportation. They fall out...

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    @ Detronbes Umm, you do know that the article is PRO for finishing the stubway line? All you did was bold parts of it to make it seem otherwise, the same technique a creationist would use on a scientific article on evolution. Reading the whole article shows NIMBYism, bad anecdotal evidence and...

    TDSB Ponders Black-Focused Schools

    In response to the above in general.... Why do more black youths idolize Snoop Dog over Will Smith? To me it's the same answer as to why black schools won't solve a single thing.

    Post: Toronto mulls bottled-water tax

    Sounds alright to me. Sure it's just tap water but heck 5 cents won't hurt and would help fund the massive garbage/recycling these bottles produce. Still would rather have !% of the GST for cities though...

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    Holy.... I hate politics sometimes. Yeah for that money it's much better to extend the Shepperd subway line!

    Transit City Details

    Alternatively they could tear down Agincourt mall and all the surrounding strip malls (that small pharma plus / chinese super market and that crap plaza on Birchmount with the Shoppers Drug Mart and prono store) and integrate it into a revitilization of the area that includes a smarter layout...

    Muslim woman suspended for skirt being "too long"

    In any case my personal take on it was that I thought both were pretty stupid. "Religious garb" is just another way of saying uniform. At first read I thought about how stupid the employer was for suspending her. Then I thought over it a bit more and found myself thinking how stupid the whole...

    Muslim woman suspended for skirt being "too long"

    http://www.thestar.com/News/GTA/article/278596 I've wanted to talk about the article a bit since it first came out a few days ago.

    Some Councillors Urge TCHC to Sell Detached Houses

    It's basic utilitarianism and is an accepted form of morality, greatest good for the greatest number and all that jazz. Taking 1.5 million back and redistributing it so that more people can have a minimum is a valid concern. Lets put this on a more global scale. If according to your thought...
