I agree. I hope the feedback was negative (again). It just feels like such a downgrade.

definitely although there seems to be a group on reedit that are determined to make them have plastic seats.

Anyone know anything about Eve Wiggins who worked for TTC as a manager as she is the GM of Mississauga Transit now??
I don't recalled dealing with her on any TTC projects.

I don't know when she worked at the TTC, but for the past 4 years at least she was quite high up at GO, ending up as the head of the bus operations.

Richard, you know we have a dedicated thread for that, right?
And if you looked there you'd see 4 pages of comments since @SaugeenJunction broke the news:
Sheppard Line 4 Subway Extension (Proposed)
Even if the province pays, you know there's still only one taxpayer. And the province spending money on one silly transit project means better ones don't get funded, at all or as soon. Not commenting on the merits of the Sheppard extension per se. Line 5 definitely is an example.

Rumors are circling that Rick Leary is out and Adam Giambrone may be coming to town.
Unsubstantiated as it is, there is a Special Board Meeting today as reported by the Toronto Sun here:
As well, there is a youtube live set up for later today via the TTC Youtube Channel here:
Staff Report for todays meeting can be found here: https://ttc-cdn.azureedge.net/-/med...513a1b6&hash=C5F3A682347CCEAAAE62331E08490DB2

Are there any other sources supporting this (besides this tweet)?

Given the meeting was just called today and the agenda is confidential (as per the TTC website) there may not be too much to go on. Hence why it is a rumor.

UT poster @RapidTransit posted this in the summer:
TTC: Other Items (catch all)
I miss the "On The Rocket", back when Councillor Adam Giambrone was the TTC Chair, around 2009. Wonder if they could use the internet to send out a new version? If they could get the WiFi to work on the streetcars first. Imagine podcasts by TTC Chair Jamaal Myers, or (who ever follows) TTC...
Edit to add; it is my understanding that AG's Saudi contract was set to expire in the next few days.

Poking around my contacts list; I believe I can verify that Leary is out.

Will be interesting to learn if it's "you're fired", "you chose to resign" or "your contract is up and we decided to replace you"
Surely your career would be over if you get booted from both the MBTA and TTC...

Though - if the rumours are correct - I don't really call replacing him with the AG to be an improvement.
