Because Vaughan and York Region have ambition, foresight, and friends in high places. Toronto, not so much.Why is Vaughan now a city when it seems to be mostly suburban sprawl and farmland? Yet it will have a terminal station for the Spadina subway.
And yet we are now constructing 2 new subway stations in Vaughan, and 20 new subway stations in Toronto.Because Vaughan and York Region have ambition, foresight, and friends in high places. Toronto, not so much.
Two too many. Vaughan should be a grain of sand in Toronto's Rob Ford-sized aquarium. But what's done is done.And yet we are now constructing 2 new subway stations in Vaughan, and 20 new subway stations in Toronto.
Try this on for size ... might make you feel better about it. There's a relatively decent demand as far as Steeles West.Two too many. Vaughan should be a grain of sand in Toronto's Rob Ford-sized aquarium. But what's done is done.

Greenwood, BC has a population of 625 and is still a City. Vaughan had a larger population than Kitchener-Waterloo as of 2006 and probably bigger than the tri-city area by now.Why is Vaughan now a city when it seems to be mostly suburban sprawl and farmland?

My mental estimate of Kitchener is stuck in the 90s I guess. Drop the smallest city from each segment and the point is still valid. People don't argue against the City of North Bay or City of London, as mostly farmland and suburban sprawl.Not true. Vaughan: 239k, K-W: 302k.
City of Kawartha Lakes, anyone?My mental estimate of Kitchener is stuck in the 90s I guess. Drop the smallest city from each segment and the point is still valid. People don't argue against the City of North Bay or City of London, as mostly farmland and suburban sprawl.

Isn't the City of Toronto mostly suburban sprawl as well? Perhaps it should be reclassified as the Town of Toronto instead.
