    Toronto Toronto | Sun Life Financial Tower & Harbour Plaza Residences | 236.51m | 67s | Menkes | Sweeny &Co

    Any idea what the green vs. red dots are...and the two units listed apparently in the middle of the harbour?

    There are condos built with gas hookups on their balconies. Has something happened to make those illegal?

    There are combo units you can get as well. I replaced my washer/dryer pair with a single unit that does both a few years ago in order to build a small pantry where the dryer was to help deal with the small kitchen. My kitchen is large by condo standards these days, and I still couldn't deal...

    Mayor John Tory's Toronto

    I'm not sure what you mean by "encourage criminal involvement" unless you mean that they've done that by the very act of making recreational sale/use of opiates illegal. Unless I'm misunderstanding what you're saying, that's a consequence, not a conflict of interest. While the harm that...

    Mayor John Tory's Toronto

    There's also a conflict of interest with selling something that's so detrimental to health. It's not even in the same league as pot, and selling it could be seen as tacit endorsement, especially if they make even a penny of profit. Portugal seems to have struck the right chord with across the...

    That's what gets me the most. I'm fine in general with paying more for green power, and having lived in Toronto for 15 years now, I appreciate no longer having to deal with the choking smoggy air during the summer. I'm not fine with having gone through the effort of cutting my power usage only...

    PM Justin Trudeau's Canada

    No, what vindicates him is the fact that he was a child soldier. The responsible parties are those that brought him over there and made him fight in a war.

    2018 Municipal Election: Toronto Council Races

    311 is great, but if the city wants people to turn to it first instead of their local councilors they need to do some marketing to show it's more effective at getting results. They need to overcome the assumption that if you want something done, you need to voice your concerns at the highest...

    Toronto Toronto | Rail Deck District | 227.23m | 70s | Craft Dev Corp | Sweeny &Co

    Totally agreed on the sentiments. I'd rather wait for a decade for the full funding to come through than have the ORCA project built as is. If they can come to a compromise, that's great, but anything that doesn't leave the vast majority of this space for public park-land is unacceptable as...

    2018 Municipal Election: Toronto Council Races

    I don't understand the reasoning behind the desire to reduce the number of councilors. It only guarantees that it will be even harder to get our voices across to them. If anything, I think we need more, either added to our current system, or in the re-introduction of a quasi-borough system...

    2018 Municipal Election: Toronto Council Races

    Definitely in agreement that we need to work on ways to reduce the advantages of incumbency without introducing strict term limits. Don't want to thrown the baby out with the bath water. We've had a few great councilors that I would rather keep on until they're not doing a good job anymore.

    Are you speaking in generalities there, or are you accusing Pam McConnell of hindering community voices?

    PM Justin Trudeau's Canada

    Only if the judges know as little, or are as willfully ignorant as the majority of Canadians seem to be right now. He was taken to the middle east as an 8 year old, indoctrinated by his parents and made to fight in a war as a child soldier. When he was captured at 15 years old, still a minor...

    PM Justin Trudeau's Canada

    I'm not even sure why the optics are bad here. What was done to him was a clear violation of both national and international law. A Canadian citizen was denied lawful treatment under the charter of rights and freedoms. Anyone who still thinks they should lock him up and throw away the key...

    Depends how unhappy they are with Patrick Brown. If they hate him enough them may vote Trillium or stay at home in an attempt to get him to lose so they can force another leadership contest. They could very well see it as payback for using them to get the PC leadership and then subsequently...

    Any idea why the trees on the south side of the road where the silva cells were installed are struggling, while those on the north without any silva cells are doing comparatively well?

    Amazon is so big and has their fingers in so many markets, it isn't going anywhere. The only way I see it disappearing is if it gets bought out by someone larger like Alibaba (assuming the US government would even let that happen). If it becomes less fashionable it's only because more people...

    There would certainly have to be some form of communication with the employer. And you can glean from the frequency of absence the likelihood that the policy is being abused. Requiring doctors notes is just a lazy way out though, especially since most will sign one without even a cursory...

    3 days still ensures that you're spreading your flu germs around when you're out trying to get a note. The government got the 10 days right. There are much better ways of dealing with sick day abusers.
