    Toronto Toronto | Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s

    I am aware of the above. I would never argue different; but the point here was that Mx was being abusive of area residents and the City and ignoring legitimate concerns, the point was that the City could choose to be equally obnoxious and difficult in the other direction. That was all.

    Toronto Toronto | 140 Grangeway | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    They have a lot of work to do in that area, including a new subway station; they will deliver the new at-grade Progress/McCowan intersection (traffic lights, and reinstatement of Progress west of McCowan), but last I heard, that was due Q4 2027, So I wouldn't anticipated any finishing...

    Toronto Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport | ?m | ?s | Ports Toronto | Arup

    The storm this July did in fact close the airport, mainly a precautionary measure due to the risk of the pedestrian tunnel flooding. Though, the airport did suffer power outages as well. There was on land flooding at the airport as well, however, it didn't have any material impact on the...

    Mayor Olivia Chow's Toronto

    For those intrigued by @afransen 's reference to the Japanese School Lunch program, here is a great explainer with pics: https://www.japanesefoodguide.com/japanese-school-lunch/ For a comparison, consider school lunches in France (the program is regionally devolved, pretty much universal with...

    Toronto Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport | ?m | ?s | Ports Toronto | Arup

    I believe this is correct. Here is a photo from 1937: Source: https://www.billybishopairport.com/the-airport/history-of-the-airport/ To my understanding, what you see above would be the City owned portion of the airport lands, with everything that was 'filled' being Toronto Harbour...

    Toronto Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport | ?m | ?s | Ports Toronto | Arup

    No, its actual title (ownership) to some of the lands used by the Airport. The map: From this report: https://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis/2024/ex/bgrd/backgroundfile-249034.pdf Which was helpfully linked by @generalcanada on the previous page.

    46th Canadian General Election

    Many reasons.......but see this post of mine from 2020 for something that I will never forgive Marit for..........political opportunism, and slagging the justice system for a well reasoned, thoughtful set of decisions, that she either hadn't read, didn't understand, or knowingly chose to...

    46th Canadian General Election

    A fine choice of adjectives, since one of my favourite about Marit is 'vacuous'.

    46th Canadian General Election

    A vote of confidence in Jagmeet? Or a vote of non-confidence in Marit Stiles? I'm inclined to think the latter.

    Toronto Toronto | 985 Woodbine | 121.5m | 35s | Choice Properties | superkül

    On a careful parsing of the Housing Issues Report, I believe the only 'affordable unit's are 12 out of the 14 replacement rental units, rather than net new affordable housing. In respect of those, this is the applicable paragraph: The language used here is ambiguous and conflicting in...

    Premier Doug Ford's Ontario

    I don't know......... A wide variety of foods can cause assorted problems of varying seriousness. I'm not sure I want to see warning labels for allergies, and tangential risk for cancer on 50% of everything we eat...... ........ I appreciate that there are real risks to any number of...

    Laughing cause I was just checking this one a few days ago............. It literally just got NOAC on Sept 24th.

    Premier Doug Ford's Ontario

    Been that way since September 5th. Get with the times Towered! Supermarket sales expand on Halloween, October 31st. That expansion will be a smaller change, relatively speaking........but I think in Toronto, we're looking at about 20-25 additional grocers picking up booze on that day.

    Toronto Toronto | Artists' Alley | 121.91m | 39s | Lanterra | Hariri Pontarini

    Does it? I was looking at it after reading your comment......and comparing it in my head to other cities..........and to things I think of as characteristically Toronto. The first thing I noted was that the laneway streetlights are weird........I don't remember seeing that type, its obviously...

    I just answered that in the post right above yours.

    Toronto Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport | ?m | ?s | Ports Toronto | Arup

    They most certainly are, LOL Shortening the runway to meet RESA requirements would eliminate use by Dash-8 aircraft which would shut down the commercial carrier that flies a large number of flights from said airport. From...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    I was muddling through the new TTC collective agreement (ratified earlier this year) recently. Came across a few things that I don't recall being discussed in any detail: These include the following: I will stop here for a moment and ask @smallspy if he happens to know which two Board...

    As there is no up to date Cover Letter for the above, here are the stats from the most recent Arch. Plans: @Paclo Unit Count and Height in storeys appear unchanged.
