Can we also put a bike lane down there while we are at it?

I think rather than enabling people to drive through Toronto quickly underground and leave thousands of local car trips above ground, they should enable local trips to be made with transit and leave the through traffic above ground. Any major infrastructure project like this should be focused on reducing car trips, not increasing them (which actually is the Liberals' official position, or at least it was a year ago, to the extent that Ontario would be looking for federal contribution).

A Bike Lane on or adjacent to a highway?

It was meant as a joke.
Ford is pandering to his base with his frivolous ideas.
The province should think about how to get people moving in masses with transit, not just putting more cars are on the road.

I have an idea for Doug if he wants to do an east west tunnel. How about a tunnel under Sheppard from McCowan to the airport? Part of it is already there!

That part was back filled by Harris. Ford and tunneling
like the Scarborough subway that never got build, like the Eglinton crosstown? I don’t have high hopes.evandyk

I was floored to see booze in a gas station for the first time today (a Pioneer in Etobicoke). Two full fridges stocked with beer, wine and RTD coolers, plus another ambient shelf with wine, and a few pallets of cases of beer in the aisle. I really didn’t think we’d see this so soon!

Been that way since September 5th.

Supermarket sales expand on Halloween, October 31st. That expansion will be a smaller change, relatively speaking........but I think in Toronto, we're looking at about 20-25 additional grocers picking up booze on that day.
