So this conversation is from a few pages back but I want to drag it up again because I want to address it head on: the idea that certain candidates will work well with other elected politicians like Ford and others (Chow or Matlow) will not. This sort of criticism is levied at all kinds of...

WTF is he even suggesting? Also last I checked, the Ontario Line will be passing under four active stations.

Nope! That section of the lot was closed off to serve as a temporary bus terminal while work was done on the actual bus terminal. The whole lot has been opened up now.

"New 'The One' Picture. What do you think? Took it yesterday." "It's very cool Bateman, but that's nothing. Look at this." "Impressive...Very nice...Let's see Paul Allen's picture." Look at that subtle off-white sky colouring...the tasteful angle of it...oh my god! It even has both lights red!

I don't find myself in the yonge and bloor area often, but I did today. Figured I'd contribute to the spam of identical pictures. From Yorkville:

Didn't we just spend a ton of money building RapidTO lanes on this corridor? And now we're going to rip it up?

If you're really interested in the topic, you can read through a report the city made a few years back, the Finch West Real Estate Market Conditions Study...

I think when Matlow is referring to the provincial subway extension he's talking about the Scarborough subway. He doesn't say anything about extending Sheppard.

That area doesn't even have sidewalks. I remember our favourite councilor Stephen Holiday fighting against having them installed across his ward a few years back.

You know not all fights between levels of government are because "he or she can", right? If the provincial government is proposing some dumb shit, then I want my mayor to fight it. Politicians should fight! They absolutely should not get along and agree on everything all of the time.

Of course, in typical GO fashion it's located away from all the density.

Another day, another poll: https://www.cp24.com/news/poll-shows-olivia-chow-leading-mayoral-race-nearly-a-third-of-torontonians-still-undecided-1.6388611 Chow leads among decided voters at 27%. Matlow and Saunders both with 16%.

That's +5 for Chow since the last Mainstreet poll last week.

^^There already is a walkway from Poplar Heights Drive to Islington.

No they did not bend over to every single minority, but maybe they should have at least listened some more. Maybe we could have gotten second entrances and elevators instead of leaving us with barebones stations that needed to be dug up a few decades later to retrofit for accessibility...

And I'm sure there were also people who complained endlessly about even the slightest inconvenience just like today. There was actually a song written about how much construction on Yonge Street sucked, lol:

Did you just call the streets of NEW YORK bland and soulless?

Most internet forums are full of young people, but I'm pretty sure the average UTer is a cynical, grumpy upper-middle age male who retired early to spend more time with their strongly-held opinions.

Eglinton West will open before Eglinton at this rate. Gonna be super awkward.
