Alternative, singular? Aside from Rogers Cable you have satellite and a handful of IPTV services from independent telcos

^ NIMBYism is an inherently suburban, single family detached home thing though so there's nothing to worry about

No need. The TTC has more information on their site http://www.ttc.ca/Spadina/Project_News/News_Events/News_by_Date/2017/April/Doors_Open.jsp

Is there any in-depth look at any of those proposals besides the one by Moriyama + Teshima with MJMA and Forrec yet? Looking at it at first glance makes me hate it because I don't like the look of that tower but looking at the renders of the interior makes the proposal look very suiting for a...

Speaking of which, it says that the York University station has free parking which I'm a bit skeptical about. Does the station have its own parking, or will I have to park on the university grounds (which we all know is expensive as hell) on the Saturday that the station is open to the public?

Pictures from today's open house...

I'm worried that we're going to be suffering through another Wynne term because of the LRTs springing up across Ontario. It seems that the construction of all of these projects were strategically timed to make it look like she's competent just in time for the election

Ah, Heartland... I remember my mom dragging me there and me wanting to walk over to Krispy Kreme while she was doing her shopping. That was the day I came to the realization how awful big box retail is

I think the problem Toronto has is that so much density has been brought only to the downtown core so that the people outside of it could still live in tract housing. I don't take too much issue with what "face" the hordes of condos have given Toronto (and while I do think a lot of them are very...

Of course they won't unless someone tells them they need to. This is how things get done in a city where people care

That's a shame. Why in the hell would they do that?

I expected something to the tune of 5-6%. While it does feel like we are growing a lot you have to remember that the other cities in Canada that are growing much faster than we are include the ones in the West (namely: Calgary, Edmonton and Saskatoon). Even today if you look at the maps of these...

Anyone know what's happening with Esprit? It was supposed to reopen in Square One

As much as I want to agree and take yet another opportunity to shit on snobby Oakvillians, I think this building will be safe. There are already a handful of highrise buildings in the area so this won't exactly stick out like a sore thumb This could spark some change for Bronte Village and make...

Good to see some development taking off. The built environment of this part of town always gave me a very bad sense

Fair enough, I should've read the post better. Now that I think about it negotiating with Apple would just be another cost in the already money-draining launch of PRESTO, that it probably wouldn't be worth it And I'm aware of the whole story but what Walmart was asking for was outrageous and...

I don't look down on people who have a desire to study philosophy, quite the contrary, we need people like that in our society. But the way post-secondary education is structured makes it more corporate than anything. The goal is to make your poor soul financially poorer so some deans and other...

If you ask me only college tuition should be government subsidized given how universities are pseudo-intellectual money-grabs nowadays

Apple Pay isn't an extra cost to the merchant but to the bank (but who knows, the banks probably will start to charge merchants more for the 0.05 of a cent Apple is asking for). And as for Costco and Walmart, they only accept Mastercard because Mastercard paid them to exclusively accept those...
