    Union Station: Northwest PATH Expansion

    I love the idea of PATH especially as the city gets taller and the wind tunnels bigger. Now if only they expanded it all the way to Yonge and Bloor and all around, you know, how the city transportation grid should be!

    Toronto's own Monopoly spot

    Nobody really blames Montreal, it just makes for a bad board(walk). As i said before, Montreal was a slow riser, it didn't appear overnight. It took a few weeks for it to get from middle-bottom near list to the top where it traded places for a bit before solidying itself. As I said before, it's...

    Toronto Toronto | Spadina Subway Extension Emergency Exits | ?m | 1s | TTC | IBI Group

    To be honest, I don't care what they do exactly as long as East meets West in some viable fashion that doesn't help clog the traffic arteries!

    As I said, I would have prefer a selected panel do the judging what does where. The criteria should not be just worth of land though, it has to have value beyond just value of the land going into historical, cultural and social impact as well. I wouldn't fault you for your desire for Tokyo...

    Toronto Toronto | Spadina Subway Extension Emergency Exits | ?m | 1s | TTC | IBI Group

    Classes aren't really that busy in the summer although if you ask me, with the increase in population, York should start thinking about year round schooling with the student deciding which 2 semesters they want as their "main". My big problem with no connection linking East and West side...

    Toronto Toronto | Spadina Subway Extension Emergency Exits | ?m | 1s | TTC | IBI Group

    The 196 rocket is already pretty much irrelevant. Barely ever got any passengers although I'd admit I was one of the very few (most get off at Downsview, few actually rode it to Shepperd) and only for the novelty of it. Was sometimes faster, other times slower depending on traffic (as compared...

    Secular Humanism

    Indeed, where is my agnostic / don't really care normally option? I am definately against dogma and any authoritarian religious institution though.

    From the Star: Raise taxes, sell land: City report

    It does if zoned properly. Getting property taxes or taxes from businesses, etc.

    Here are a few "offensive" ones you can look up: Arsoli (Lazio, Italy) Bastard (Norway) Beaver (Oklahoma, USA) Beaver Head (Idaho, USA) Brown Willy (Cornwall,UK) Chinaman's Knob (Australia) Climax (Colorado, USA) Cunt (Spain) Cunter (Switzerland) Dikshit (India) Dildo (Newfoundland...

    Toronto's own Monopoly spot

    There would be more than 22 cities. Example of how i would instill a vote system: The "Boardwalk (400), Park Place (350)" would be a choice of New York, Paris, London, etc. i.e. High density, "World class cities". These cities would not be available to be located anywhere else but these...

    To determine the order in which they appear. As I said before, I would have preferred each spot to have nominations that you vote for rather than every city for itself. New York should not have a chance to be spot 20 while Istanbul be spot 1. Basically New York should be in spot 1-5 as...

    U of Waterloo: School of Pharmacy (Dntn Kitchener, 8s, Hariri Pontarini/Robbie/Y+W)

    If we just followed the fashion trend, technically we'd be scrapping building and building new ones every couple of years! The point is to have many styles and variety. I still think the building looks like a recycling center for some reason but I can't quite figure out why...

    U of Waterloo: School of Pharmacy (Dntn Kitchener, 8s, Hariri Pontarini/Robbie/Y+W)

    I don't know why but the look of the building makes me think of "recycling center".

    "My dear"? LOL Bud, you're obviously trolling here. The sudden take down of the leaderboard does support and it and this is not a conspiracy theory. It's a prank through and through and an obvious one. People have pranked lesser stuff before and it is a great target. And where did I ever...

    From the Star: Raise taxes, sell land: City report

    Here's another expense they can curb... stop paying high commissions to "famous rich guys" to give out poorly researched stuff I could have gotten off this board for free. Seriously, this can be filed under "obvious" with the exception of the "pay hike" which should be linked to performance...

    I wouldn't call it patriotic. Given the mischief making intent of most hackers, it'd probably be more like promoting bottom tier cities just for a laugh. Probably only takes one or two computers running the script to do that. Yeah, it costs Parker Bros. a good chunk of cash but you can't deny...

    Toronto's own Monopoly spot

    Well, the big money put into advertising this around the world makes it a hot target for savvy coders and hackers. The majority of these talented "rascals" live in Europe and Asia, although I give the nod in terms of engenuity (basically the best hackers) to the Europeans. Heck they even hold...

    Actually, no, it's you that don't seem to understand what's going on. The vote is currently being botted. Something doesn't lead for several weeks only to have that lead shrink to cities that were not even anywhere near the top in just a few days or a week. I never really cared if Toronto was on...

    Toronto's own Monopoly spot

    Yeah, I agree, voted today and took a look at the standings. At this point, I prefer Toronto to not be in any of the spots. This board is an embarrassment. Out of nowhere we have places where a huge majority of the world do not and would not want to live on the board at the top, or a bunch of...
