    Former President Donald Trump's United States of America

    Incorrect. Yeltsin - as a leader in a country that has always swayed to autocracy - had almost universal control of the country, including the army, after the USSR's failed putsch shortly after his election - and the collapse of the previous state. Under encouragement from American 'vultures'...

    Toronto Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    I am still in shock it didn't rain a lick in Mimico while it seems the whole city flooded at once.

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    I don't understand why an already washed up actor who isn't even from Toronto is doing voiceovers for the TTC. Also - he's incredibly annoying with a grating voice - but that's beside the point. In fact, until I read up on his Vancouver voiceover - I didn't even know he was Canadian - just...

    Toronto Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    Any chance of looking at the ~$4 billion spent to date on Union as sunk costs (the government's had plenty of those lately... Power plants among others) and just rebuild the whole thing? Close the station (tracks and all), maybe with minor allowances for through movements and brief stops for 5...

    Jennifer Keesmaat's Toronto

    LOL! Torontonians blowing car bombs in Kingston for the separation of their clay.

    Fantastic - love Muji.

    2018 Provincial Election Transit Promises

    Ya no. Taking the subway 4 stops to City Hall makes sense - taking transit from the transit deserts of Etobicoke does not. Especially when you're premier and have the resources not to. I do not nearly have the resources of the Ford family, but I drive whenever I bloody can into the city -...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Is Seth Rogen going to be the new voice of the TTC? If so, I will never ride transit again. There are few voices in this world that irritate me quite as much as his.

    Toronto One Front | 170.86m | 49s | Larco | a—A

    So one of the footprints is directly over the heritage designated long room? Nothing is sacred in this city, except for single family homes in the Annex.

    Metrolinx: Presto Fare Card

    Is anyone surprised? Have you ever seen a reader out of service, but still showing the background OS? It's Windows 98. You're welcome.

    TTC: Streetcar Network

    It's funny how transit service in HBS gets worse as the neighbourhood grows and adds thousands of residents. Is there anywhere else in the city where transit service and population are so completely off ratio?

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Well one can certainly call rolling roadblocks to be order - but I'd be hard pressed to call it elegance.

    Toronto Municipal Election 2018: Mayor’s Race

    They most certainly did not. When a regional transit agency is looking to add an infill city station they’ll obviously revert to city planning for direction. If planning says not required - you think they’ll disagree and spend scarce transit dollars on building a station that’s unnecessary? For...

    Toronto Municipal Election 2018: Mayor’s Race

    As I said... her office said the go station wasn’t required. That’s why there’s a minimum 5 year delay on that right now. I can blame her for fucking that up. And giving me and my colleagues a lot of work to do. Either way she will lose and lose hard. She’s very unpopular outside the...

    Toronto Municipal Election 2018: Mayor’s Race

    Her office also told Metrolinx the PL GO station was not required. This is why ML rejected the station all the way back in 2016 - stating city support required first.

    2018 Provincial Election Transit Promises

    I think you forgot there's a city outside of the downtown core. Keesmaat is highly unpopular there. Tory is the safe choice for suburban Toronto - and suburban Toronto calls the shots/elections.

    2018 Municipal Election: Toronto Council Races

    If you're curious or concerned about the new wards and possible gerrymandering - look at the current federal and provincial ridings. There are your wards.
