This is potentially the lightening rod issue much like Rob and outsourcing Garbage. Even all those Minorities in the GTA who have gotted duped over and over into voting Liberals as "helping them" are fed up with not only their Peel Region home value dropping like a stone because of the Foreign...

I find neighbourhoods close to a busy street or intersection have larger businesses which the city allows or zones it. Eglinton is a major through way. I also mentioned some places have old grandfathered zones, or houses were built around it knowing it was that. Give me the address of that...

Hmm sure, I guess people can do that, but for me, I'm talking about Licensed daycare that are regulated and inspected. I guess there are parents who don't give 2 cents, sending their kids to unregulated private daycare and not even checking on how many other children are there per adult.

I fear it will get messy. The one that doesn't want it will want an equitable payout. While the 2 that do, trying to split ownership will ultimately result in an headache of usage, maintenance, etc. Given the way prices are now and reduced supply, it seems unlikely one can just buy surrounding...

Although I laugh at people in Leaside who don't want a homeless shelter on Eglinton Ave yet are the types to vote in Liberals so we can help all (just not in our neighbourhood), I would have to agree with this. I mean even in the burbs, to request a variance to run a huge daycare would likely...

On the face of it it makes sense. But small potential Trump can use it as a lightening rod to craft legislation (depends on how heavy Pro Trump republicans take Congress). Many educated Americans will likely also side with 'punishing' Amazon for the loss of such an opportunity to say "ohh, you...

Odd how many here are more 'left/Liberal' yet against the this new left wing process for development.

Aren't condo daycares usually used by the people that live there hence no car required for drop-off? Just an elevator ride down. Or ones from close by/walking distance such as in the financial district of Toronto? I know some condo owners who talked about the benefit of that. But in a...

More than half of decided or leaning voters plan to vote for Tories in June election: poll https://www.cp24.com/news/more-than-half-of-decided-or-leaning-voters-plan-to-vote-for-tories-in-june-election-poll-1.3873714

Given how rents in the core have skyrocketed, the people that bought say 5+ years ago are probably just even now. Purchase price under 400K (maybe 350K). So mortgage about $1200. Maintenance about $400. Property taxes about $200. Insurance about $50. Rent now about $1900. Some might be...

They did but they still took a huge risk with minimal margin for error. I'm like them... immigrants, worked hard, have kids, want a better life for them, blah blah blah. But if you go on to their web page, they really live in this bubble. What's not talked about is they valued their existing...

It might but by that same token, it might complicate and make them a target for tax and operational matters. i.e. dual head office? That means you are 50% foreign which means subject to foreign corporations rules and therefore additional scrutiny by different regulators. Want to acquire a...

The market is getting hot again in the core (defined as not Scarborough, generally south of St. Clair/O'Conner). Not as crazy as before, but the millennials love their Streetcar/Subway/Walk-ability/storefront shops/city amenities.

Even the Star's online own poll has Ford up huge. I have a feeling it's going to be strong majority for the PCs. Including the outer areas of Metropolitan Toronto.

Now that Scarborough subway will get built for sure. No way Dougie allocates any of that money to anything else. He's going to make sure to preserve his brother's legacy on that.

Hmm, you have no idea what it was like before and after Harris (including forcing amalgamation which has lead to alot of the polarity today in Toronto). Doug doesn't have the smarts or energy to pull off what Harris did. Christine Elliot had it in the bag, but just came across too politician...

Never said anything about competency. You could be competent as a far left-winger, to competently implement all the taxes only to have a backlash leading to a not so competent right winger. The fact is, Miller is a known variable of raising taxes on every little thing he can think of (they...

If Miller comes back, we know the result will be Ford 2.0 in some way or another following his tenure. Do people really want to risk that?

It won't get fixed here unless the rules surrounding it change. In Seoul, they have multiple crews working on a project. Late hours, all day, evenings, on Sundays when it requires to getting the job done. Here, it's "only 1 crew consisting of x amount of peoples, only x hrs per day, on only...

If she had focused on planning outside of Toronto, that would have made her more acceptable. Even if it was a goodwill gesture type thing. But nope. Total 100% snobbery.
