I haven't read the entire thread so don't know what has been said before but what do you mean by "victimized"? If you mean that you don't believe any group has been victims of racism, then there are ample studies, reports and surveys that point to the contrary. There's the report from...

Racism in Canada has largely been covert but I think there's generally less racism today than, say, 20 or 30 years ago (at least in Toronto which is what I know). However, there are still many corporations here whose Executives are almost exclusively white male while other staff are mixed. So...

That was my point?? :confused:

When they talk about 'light rail' I think they're referring to rail trains like the Scarborough LRT. This is not the same as streetcars that we're talking about here.

If you click on "more info," it clearly states this is the CN Tower. Businesses can add their names to map by e-mailing Google so maybe that's what someone at CTV did. Nothing wrong with that.

How is this different from TTC maps here: http://www3.ttc.ca/Routes/General_Information/Maps/index.jsp Someone already mentioned that this is just another symptom of TTC incompetence, so no need to pile on; but this goes deeper than being 'just a map' problem. The TTC is one of the faces...

There was a huge thread on this on another board but my understanding is delivery charges go to corporate and not the driver.

Other than Whole Foods and maybe TNT, I don't know how retailers at Hazelton Lanes survives. Every time I go there (almost always on weekends) most of the place is practically empty and I can imagine the rent there is high.

If your intention is to ride in Toronto (on major streets but not trails or private property or residential roads, etc. as I previously said) then the rule should be you will need a licence even if you live in Vaughan. If you're from way out of town like NYC and don't have a license...

Check in here for updated list. Canada has none in the top 10 but RBC did make top 13 in terms of market captialization. But the point is Financial Services is far from being a distinctive feature of TO.

Are you sure about this? According to a 2009 CBC article, Canada's biggest bank, RBC, is #26 in the world. Link here. I'm sorry but I just came back from Hong Kong and Japan in which we extensively took public transit and have also taken the transit extensively in London and Paris a few...

Yes, location is everything in real estate, but in the context of this thread, even good locations weren't selling as fast and now it's getting better which is the point of the OP. Overall, prices are still down from the peaks of 2007, but I think the reason why prices have risen recently is...

Not to speak for ceaz40 but how does this contradict what he said, in particular, the reference to HTA 147 where it says "..as close as practicable to the right edge of the road..."? I note the word "practicable" because it would not be practicable if your safety is compromised. If I see a...

I'm also in favour of licensing and thinking aloud here... but how about licensing only those cyclists who choose to use the major public roads? By "public," I'm excluding riding on private property, designated areas in public parks or bike trails. And by "major," I'm referring to primary...

There must be something special about that Zip condo because that's a bit much to pay for just a 486 sq ft condo with no locker or parking. Correct me if I'm wrong but King West Life has 1100 units to sell in 3 phases and they're not even sold out of phase 1 as of a couple of weeks ago and now...

But they do say no. Back around March of this year, I was exchanging e-mails with someone named Ken K. who was working on this neighbourhood map project and I had argued that it was inconsistent that Little Italy around College/Clinton is a listed neighbourhood while Chinatown around...

So if I have this right, PlazaCorp is has not sold out of Phase 1 of King West Life and they still have 2 more phases to sell and now they are starting another concurrent project building another condo in the same block called The Tower @King West... right? It would appear PlazaCorp has...

Not sure if this has been mentioned already but the latest info in Ontario HST legislation provides for a rebate available for new rental housing, including investment properties to be rented out, for use as primary places of residence. This rebate would apply across all price ranges up to a...
