when he threatened to invoke the War Measures Act to remove bike lanes BRO thats a beaverton link

Im no lawyer but im pretty sure seizure is a constitutional law and cant be easily changed

Yes its pure idealism.

I dont think leakers can lol

here we go again lmao. It hurts peoples access to the island, its a waste of space, the noise pollution has a small harm. They block developments nearby. Pick one

I read that as an insider saying 100 billion was what the proponents are saying? Is there a different read of that article?

Was this forseen at all, or was it actually a suprise?

As someones whos out of the loop on this. I remember hearing that CN/CP wont let them run ventures on their tracks, but how true is this?

based

Im going to die on this hill here, but yes they should. If you operate a business that actively harms people around you, you cant expect to 1. be able to block nearby development and 2. be able to continue to keep your business open. It just shouldnt be allowed

Thats the first report. Honestly when Air Canada came out on this bidder I think it was kinda sealed. Though SNC Lavalin doesnt look good.

Holy shit 100 billion. probably closer to 120 billion? No way. Its straight dead on election. How would they even consider that politically feasable from the article:

On the off-chance you unblocked me.... "High Park is close and its great why do you need a new one" Same thing...still just straight wrong. Parks are great and they need to be spread out. You can't have enough public space. Also there is no "fight" at the port lands, there's going to be...

https://imgflip.com/i/98dc75 Yes, people moved in knowing the airport is there, but doesn't mean that we can't make the neighborhood better. Another example is the Gardiner, it exists and its important, but that doesn't mean it should block local progress. Imagine the Bentway but all across the...

Thought so lol

Ill take a stab at this. Toronto has grown so much since the 80s. Just look at photos from then and now and say the city is the same. All those condos and people living here only started since in the early 2000's. Instead of an industrial area it was in the 80s there is tens of thousands of...
