Hopefully it brings more ridership to the Kinston rd streetcar line making it more frequent/less short turns. I'd think this is one of the best examples of the City's avenues plan in the entire city.

Mods - you can kill this thread if you want as it's sort of speculative now, but from an article in the Birchcliff news - and acknowledgement of local councillor, it looks like it might move forward. http://www.birchcliffnews.com/new-condo-heart-birch-cliff/ Kingston Rd is on fire these past...

It's hard to tell, but the step back has begun on the 5th floor on the south side. They've also started installing steel for the awning/canopy on the first floor - you can see it just above the hoarding.

Get the popcorn ready for May 26/27. It's the next G7/G8 meeting. By that time Trump will have pissed off enough countries, that I get the impression the group photo will be similar to the classic Rob Ford photo where everyone else is having a good time and Rob was off to the side sulking...

We shouldn't have an issue - yet. Trump's annoyed about Obama agreeing to take refugees off of Australia's hand. Trudeau's offering the opposite. It does seem inevitable that everyone will have an issue with Trump though.

So....he acts like Trump. I honestly don't see a point debating the hardliners (of either party in fact) because you'll never change minds or they won't acknowledge your side (more from the right on the last point.) A lot of Migos's plagiarized diatribe is correct, he just goes too far with his...

Don't disagree, but he's got a nutjob for a boss. Waiting to see who quits first........... He's gonna go through press secretaries faster than toilet paper. I can't comprehend trying to defend/justify this BS daily. It's like defending the earth is flat and the sun rotates around the earth -...

A guy with the nickname "Mad Dog" is the sane one.......we live in scary times. As for the EPA, it would be funny, if it wasn't so scary. All of his cabinet picks are like Rob Ford after he won and invited Don Cherry to speak (a middle finger to his detractors), except he's appointing crazy...

I was thinking about this when discussing with AoD earlier. If the world cuts off Trump (US) from the world in trade, they'd become their own version of a North Korea. It would be funny, if it wasn't so scary.

Give (mad dog) Mattis time. It's coming....... Trumps already harping about vaccinations (didn't he put an anti-vaxxer in charge of looking into it?)........fluoridation will be next.

Gravy train! Efficiencies! Too much middle management! Too much unions! Gold plated pensions! A majority of the electorate are morons. See Rob Ford, Donald Trump. Populism rules these days. Hopefully Trudeau's charisma carries us through.

He does keep reminding me of Dr Strangelove. His war cabinet is eerily close.

Didn't want to go that hyperbolic, but WWIII is a possibility. Doomsday clock just got moved up. The threat is real. But the war's inevitable........ It will take time for his decisions to play out and the realities of what happens to seep in (to the US and him). But with his narcissism and...

From the sounds of it, Trump just guaranteed China's ascension. Killing TPP has opened the door to China offering their trade deal (RCEP), but without any laws around workers rights etc. that TPP had. We're watching the downfall of the US. Trump only hit fast forward. Not wishing for it, just...

Oh I totally see the parallels to the lead up to WWII, but in the current context, I see it as the globe saying screw you US, and only taking them out of the equation. Yes there would be a period of adjustment for new sourcing of things etc, but I think it wouldn't be a depression (another great...

In what sense for geopolitical? I'm not a fan of him having nuke codes, but I don't think he'll use it < Then there'd be no people left to worship him. (in his head at least) Personally, I'm guessing he puts up trade barriers and the globe retaliates. Not good for us (short term), but it will...

But do you really want to nail him? (I'm guessing you mean impeachment) Next up is Pence and he's the Dick Cheney of women's rights - and he's a real politician that can spin things better. There's no good way out until next mid terms - assuming the Dems sweep to take back control and stop the...

If by money God, you mean their paycheque, you'd be right. Most of them got elected on a platform of small prop tax hikes (inflation). Tory certainly did. If Tory had run on truth - such as a ~6% property tax hike to balance the budget, we'd have Mayor Doug Ford. The electorate are the ones to...

True, Patrick Brown is missing the point. I'd be more curious to know how much the electricity rates have increased in these more expensive jurisdictions over the last decade compared to Ontario's. I would guess ours have increased the most over that time frame. That's why Ontarians are so mad...

No, the press is. DD's statement says Trump called last Saturday. Besides, he's said another dozen crazy things since then to get mad about.
