If firms want to move, they'll look that their need to be in the 416 versus the costs and benefits. I don't think you can specifically lure a company that doesn't want to come just by reaching out to them. The numbers have to make sense. Remember that this is still essentially a suburban...

This is such terrible timing. I bet the Jays are extremely frustrated that they had to do this. It might have been one of the better attended series all season, depending on whether the Jays get into a pennant race. (Not likely if they keep getting slaughtered by New York and Boston all season.)

It doesn't matter where the tenant is from. There could be many reasons why P&G would move. Besides, it opens up their old location for someone else. This is good for the city.

I think you'll find that this issue is very low on the list of the most important issues for most Canadians. People are worried about their jobs, the economy, health care, safety and security, education, their ability to provide for their children, and so on. Funding for a gay pride parade in...

No, the trick is understanding why your argument is poor. I will tell you. Your argument is what's called a "fallacy of accident," or a generalization that disregards exceptions. There are many reasons someone might support the Conservatives, most of which have nothing to do with his or her...

How could I have been so blind to the conspiracy? Turns out I'm nothing but a pawn! We're all nothing but pawns! Now I see! I finally SEE! And it's all thanks to you.

Not much argument among transit users that subways are the best, but we can't afford them. Next suggestion?

These studies are pointless. They always compare apples to oranges.

I agree. I guess I'm just trying to manage people's expectations here. It's only going to receive so much attention, support, funding, and so on because it's not a viable four-season option for most people. (Hard-cores notwithstanding.)

Some people are such whiners. Embrace this! It's the largest gathering of global leaders that exists on our planet. The leaders of Earth are in our city! We should feel lucky to experience it once in our lifetimes.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with bus rapid transit. It's not sexy but it works. For the love of God, let's just get SOMETHING started. Dedicated lane buses are a hell of a lot better than sweet FA, which is what we're possibly facing now. I don't believe we will ever have another subway...

I have no desire whatsoever to be able to cycle around the city, but I think we should have the option available for those that do. However, I don't think cycling will ever become a main mode of transportation in Toronto (as a percentage of commuters, let's say) because of our climate. Holland...

Not sure this decision is about bigotry. My guess is that the festival will still go on and probably not be that hurt by this. Other groups could easily point to the pride festival and ask why they have received funding so many times while other organizations have never received any funding. Gay...

I'm sure there are other issues. This is likely just the straw that broke the camel's back. If you are hired to do something and not given the tools or the means to do it the way you would like to or have the ability to, quitting might be your best option. Being part of a disaster is bad for...

Neighbourhoods in the 3-6 storey range are very intimate and in my opinion are the most pleasing to walk around. There are many examples in New York (Lower East Side, Greenwich Village), Montreal (Plateau), London (Marylebone), Boston (Beacon Hill) and many more. They make for quiet, intimate...

I noticed this yesterday, too. This design desperately needs the trees to make it work.

So sad, but so true. If only it worked like that, though. That MoMa building looks cool, but it also looks very impractical.

It's a little scary just how dated that design looks now. Ugh. I really don't like it at all. Give me a box any day over that oval layer-cake.

This might be one of the greatest posts ever. It's got that rare combination of misplaced anger, not understanding how forums work and poor writing.

I had no idea this project was going to take so long. timeline
