I found this article interesting.
http://www.newgeography.com/content/00416-toronto-the-action-where-you-make-it
The author discusses that Toronto has a "fetish for regulation". Describes how the "natural expression of exuberance is left crippled" by the "regulation and protocol that define the city’s ethic".
I agree that there seems to be more and more regulation by the city over how we use and enjoy our streets, public places and retail areas. The city needs to take action to get people out of their homes and enjoying the city. An increasing list of limitations as to how we can use and enjoy the city does stifle the life and energy of the city.
