Well in general it doesn't matter how much standing room there is in the back. From what I've seen they should make the front standing room only except for a very few token seats for the elderly/disabled/etc. People just refuse to move to the back. Decreasing standing room in the mid-back area...

But the fact is, you could also build a potential 12 family complex in a cheaper neighborhood... That's the whole point really. What would be the best? The fact is, there is no way to tell as none of us can see the future. Perhaps another view is needed? Sell all high income lands then...

Just to reiterate what I said before. The Go station would be pushed South a bit towards the Tridel Metrogate area (as shown on plans) and some TTC station would cross there as well supposadly creating a mini-union station of sorts for Agincourt (I do believe those were your words a very long...

You didn't quite get my meaning. The Ontario seats were dumped in to make it be "perceived" that they are equalizing by population. It's a ruse. By definition of equalization by population Ontario should get more seats than what is presented but it is clearly not the case. Harper et al...

The question boils down to this... what is healthier, mixed neighborhoods or more housing? I don't think it's as clear cut as you make it. Clearly the city/province will only budget a certain amount for affordable housing so is the offset of having a few families living better outweight the...

I have a question, are these streetcars going to be linked slinky style to produce longer lengths or are they going to be standard 1 shots like most buses are?

At least there is one thing you have in common with the rest of us here. No real argument here. Just gonna say that Birchmount is a block west of Allanford as you stated and the actual TTC station is supposed to be located in the Tridel Metrogate project (due to it being the first Green LEED...

Except we can see how well that's working for natives... If a parent is pressuring their kids to get out and make dough, it doesn't matter what they do at school short of taking the kid away from the parent. Yet once again, how does this relate to the fact that the all black schools are from...

The problem is that the Conservatives are trying to increase representation of their "safe" ridings and pretending they are being fair by increasing Ontario ridings but not by a proportional amount. It's far from fair because they are trying to justify having "proportional" in their own...

Well, my theory is that the Bloor - Danforth subway should be extended to STC and the Shepperd subway expanded to Kennedy. The reason is that the big spurs of new condos being built along Shepperd, Yonge and STC would soon overload the current capacity of the Yonge subway line. By extending...

@cdl.to LOL

For your few hundred word rant a simple one word answer: politics

I'll be sure not to get in a car with you. 100KM in a stop sign zone?

I have to wonder if Detro is using this MB to sharpen up his debate skills? He usually runs opposite to the popular opinion. I'm not calling you a troll (to reasonable to be one) but I can't help but notice your usually on the opposite side.

I wonder if any councillors read this messageboard?

Yeah,yeah, all peachy keen but in the end, what does Gr. 1-8 have to do where the problems really are? Look, studies show that yes, blacks do drop-out more... in HIGH SCHOOL. That means Gr. 9-12. Likewise current "kiddie" school does very little to help prep for high school in general. What do...

LRT is unsuitable because it doesn't alliviate traffic congestion. As I said, the subway should go to at least a little past Vic Park. If your building within the margins of the current road, how the heck would an LRT be able to alliviate congestion? It's a waste of money. Given the choice to...

I never understood that article. I read it before coming here but to me it just smacks of stupid rules of the road. Fact. It is safest to drive with the speed of traffic. When you don't you're a hazard. Actual speed is irrelevant. If you crash at 100km an hour chances are your gonna be dead...

Ugh, LRT for Shepperd East built within current road medians? What's the point of that? The 190 from STC to Fairview mall couldn't possibly be that much slower than a streetcar. Everyone around there knows that traffic arteries come up at Vic Park and to a lesser extent Kennedy. Even if they...

I do
