I drive the 401 between Cambridge and Mississauga and the biggest problem is rigs bunching up and taking 2 out of the 3 lanes. Here's my thoughts: 1. Expand the 401 like the MTO wants. 2. Build the highway bypasses, Cambridge to Geulph, Brampton, Vaughn, etc. The 401 is over-congested...

Draft of connecting Urban Growth Centers So I was thinking how convienent it would be if all the urban centers in the GTHA were all connected. What better than finding the most direct route to each urban center from each urban center? If Urban Growth Centers are supposed to have high density...

Whoaccio for mayor! Why not Whoaccio for mayor? You're on the ball when it comes to describing the possible canidates. You wouldn't want me for mayor - I would pay down the city mortgage, and pay cash for things. Apparently that's not the right way to run finances in government. "Borrow...

What does sexual preference have to do with someone's ability to lead a city?

I feel sorry for the suckers who bought. The Palms is a bad concept. It's cold for 6 months out of the year. Nothing like sun bathing in the middle of January on top of a 23 story building. The amenities are not even close to what a real resort provides. The layouts have VERY LIMITED kitchen...

I've request last week from the MTO the to provide the plans for this project. Still waiting to hear back from them. Knowing our government, they'll never get back to me.

I've been thinking about this for the longest time and the high amount of traffic on the 401 does suggest "something" needs to be built to accomidate cross regional transporation east-west non-downtown Toronto. My opinion is to have a high speed rail line going from Kitchener to Bowmanville...

Now I look bad. I wish I could live in TO for less than $1000/mth, but then of course I have a family.

So Tim Hudak, MPP Niagara West-Glanbrook , won the leadership of the Ontario Progressive Conservatives. Will this end up changing the fate of Ontario after 2011? Are Dalton's tax and spend, and deception days are over? The McGuinty government has increased taxes and will increase them even...

Today when driving home, I turned left onto a side street. A bicyclist was in the opposite lane and then proceeded to go into the lane I was turning into. I honked my horn at him, then he realized he was about to get hit. Cyclists should follow the same rules as cars if they want to be on...

I am surprised (or not surpised) by the mention of 'smart government'. I think people are starting to wake from their zombie like state for the past few decades. To put things into perspective, we don't need more government(s), we need a smarter and transparent government(s). What are the...

The point where the protesters surpassed the police and started running (not marching or walking) for the Gardiner Expressway is where I think people got too emotional. Walking or running onto an expressway in Canada is illegal. Walking or running on a street is less serious than an expressway...

Tamil Protest Video Getting Out of Control - On to The Gardiner I think this is the video that puts the icing on the cake. What they did was completely illegal and has thrown out any regard for the Canadian society. You do not see this in Canada. Tamil Protest Video Getting Out of Control -...

Protest I can't beleive my eyes. I can't believe a group that is protesting about another country is allowed to block highways and cause a major disruption.
