    Loblaws

    The strange thing about that is there's already no lack of No Frills in that part of the city. There's one within about a 20 or 25 minute walk from there in all four compass directions -- 222 Lansdowne, Dufferin Mall, 2187 Bloor W, and 372 Pacific Ave. From what I can see, the three closest...

    Billy Bishop Airport Expansion?

    He gave that as one of the reasons for trying to get away with reducing their number of slots they had agreed to keep using at YTZ, along with how much more expensive it was for them compared to YYZ. It sounds like they probably wouldn't want to be there at all anymore if it hadn't been part of...

    Toronto BMO Field Renovations (FIFA26) | MLSE | Gensler

    I think that was only for single games? (And in the summer. It didn't work so well -- "chunk of turf the size of a large pizza box" -- in November 2013, the last time it was done.)

    How to solve homeless issue?

    I'm honestly not sure I understand your question. It seems to be implying that somehow compassion is being displayed for this individual by allowing them to lie there outside on the pavement all day and night. I'm not the foremost expert on the subject, and I haven't seen this in person, but it...

    Toronto BMO Field Renovations (FIFA26) | MLSE | Gensler

    Yes, it appears they don't play at BMO Field until August 6. Three of their nominal "home" games will be road games, and the pre-season one will be in Guelph. The first Argo game I went to at Exhibition Stadium when I was about 13 or 14 years old was with a friend who had bought what he said...

    Billy Bishop Airport Expansion?

    https://archive.is/yIPuG Only about 61% of the available slots are presently being used, so where does the notion come from that there is some large unfilled demand for more flights and passenger traffic for YTZ? (As mentioned previously in this thread, Air Canada has only the larger A220-300...

    Billy Bishop Airport Expansion?

    I assume the 11pm curfew is also a problem for the idea of pro sports teams using YTZ when departing after an evening game, which almost all the games are except for occasionally some in baseball. All airports can have flights diverted due to weather, including high winds, though I would assume...

    Billy Bishop Airport Expansion?

    We don't really know yet how much of an expansion this move to allow "jets" would involve. It depends on which jets it would be. Some seem to be only looking at what was described about 12-14 years ago by Porter when they still owned the terminal, and were proposing extending the runway from...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Do you get that it's not just about aesthetics? Those of us using the TTC are doing so to travel from one place to another, hopefully without as many of the continual "trespasser at track level" and "security incident" delays causing the subway lines to stop running. It's a public transit...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    I think the TTC and local authorities have had more and better trained security over about the last 12-18 months. But the main problem seems to be that these people, who are dangerous to themselves and problematic for others, are continually apprehended, then apparently released almost...

    Billy Bishop Airport Expansion?

    The turboprop planes like the Q400 are aging, and seem unlikely to be replaced by newly developed ones any time soon. They have already largely disappeared from the U.S. But as mentioned in the other thread, the smallest jet airliners like the Airbus A220-100 (Delta is presently the only North...

    Toronto Westbend Residences | 44.08m | 13s | Mattamy Homes | BDP Quadrangle

    It oddly looks to have been left alone so far, though maybe that has something to do with winter and won't last much longer.

    Downtown Markham

    And now the people of Markham are starting to hear how much this is costing them, already over $12 million and counting. https://www.yorkregion.com/news/council/city-of-markham-formalizes-indy-funding/article_4eb70127-5360-5ed4-9a56-30030a57c23b.html Edit: It's the race promoters, Green Savoree...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    I think over about the last year or so, most of the time I get on the subway, and it goes, with fewer (but not none) of the "security incident" and "trespasser at track level" type of delays. There seems to have been a change in attitude from the authorities from their previous apathy and...
