Oh no, I use that bridge regularly when cycling, are they putting in a new one?

A large part of that video is shot in South Etobicoke in the Humber Bay Area. Not downtown, nor "Tony".

The point you are making about it being intentional doesn't hold up for me, so if there's a massive snow storm or a shooting that causes your car to have to stay on a street for 3 days, it's somehow intentional that you didn't estimate (or predict) that would happen? What might be equivalent is...

Oh yeah, that's not fun. Maybe different tickets, it's a hard thing to determine. But I think intention here matters, anyone who does not pay TTC is doing that knowingly and on purpose. Someone running out to their car 2 minutes after he meter runs out is not doing that intentionally. If we...

To willingly and knowingly commit an illegal act by not paying your TTC fare is not the same thing as someone having a Doctor's appointment going over by 5 minutes and not being able to run out in time to the meter to put in an extra dollar or check the GreenP app because they are having a...

I don't see anyone mentioning a proposed Go station anywhere in this thread? Are you seeing something I'm not? I brought up that it would be a convenient spot for one in terms of planning long term - my own idea, nothing proposed.

I like the look of this one. Also agree they should be going for 15-20 here, but what we saw across the street with Dunpar shows that they may not allow anything above 10 stories. I hope the province pushes for higher densities here. A long term plan for a Go Station at Royal York/Dundas (in...

It's hard for the city to justify an economic crisis when they won't raise the property taxes to be in line with the rest of the GTHA. I could understand if the city had the highest property taxes in the region and still couldn't manage, but we are nowhere near that point. There's still plenty...

I'm trying to figure out a timeline of by-elections that might happen, so we have Toronto Mayoral by election Monday June 26th. If Bradford, Matlow or Holyday (if he runs) wins, then that forces another by-election in one of those wards, when would that happen? We will have a...

If you're talking about John Moore, take everything and anything he says with a grain of salt.

The people who move to these areas with TTC subway access and close highway access (427 in this case) - choose these areas precisely because they offer the "best of both worlds" so to speak, quick access to downtown via transit and access to a car. Giving people what they want vs. creating a...

A few things can be true. Hate Dunpar. But also this sounds like it was written by a wealthy resident of the Kingsway - total NIMBY. They are trying to make it seem like the setback on the old Rona site is why that development was allowed to go through, but it also faced significant pushback...

Today I don't think this would be a story. We're at a point that public housing is needed for teachers, nurses, lawyers, and approaching councillors (if they are single - 30% of a council salary after taxes is getting close) - not just those minimum wage workers/low income workers we...

Who the hell wants to live on an onramp. Absolutely no walkability here. Awful. Although I do like the look of the building.

I agree, I think it's quite a smart move for Toronto to say "Ok Province, either take it or we are tearing it down". Ford would never allow these highways to be torn down under his watch. And as much as this forum tries to paint Bailao as a right-leaning candidate, she is no friend of the Fords...

She got 48% of the vote.... more than 8 other councillors (Including Perks, Malik, Morley, Crawford, Saxe, etc). Just because the opposition was 1 person, doesn't make achieving 48% of the vote any less of an accomplishment. Anyway, I'm not here to defend Nunziata, the point was to show that...

See for me, I think Holyday and Matlow both act and vote like aggressive "baffoons" (your words, not mine). When both do similar things, but you find ways to justify it for someone you agree with, and not the other, for me, is hyper partisan. Re: the Nunziata vote, Matlow didn't nominate...

I watched The Agenda segment this week with Brown. She seemed to me to be a little negative, didn't want to be there, and everything seemed to be reactionary (The way we do this is bad because XYZ..) instead of presenting ideas, it's much easier to be a policy analyst, and just criticize what's...

When a vernacular or dialect is something you choose to turn on and off - it's not so much of an accent as much as a way to participate in a group/identity, and attain social capital / and an act identifier to a group. I think the MLE (as it is noted above) is more of this. Similar types of...

Did Cathy Crowe part ways with the NDP? She ran for them a few times I believe.
