    Greyhound: Apart from that, how was your experience today?

    I still have yet to hear why this guy should be allowed to live when his victim is not. Let "the punishment fit the crime". A crime the most severe and reprehensible imaginable should be punished with a penalty the most severe and brutal imaginable. Is allowing this guy to live and maybe even be...

    Greyhound: Apart from that, how was your experience today?

    Yeah, you're all correct. This poor murderer is a "victim of the system" and deserves to one day walk a free man. :rolleyes: Somehow I think if he moved next door to you, you'd change your stance.

    Greyhound: Apart from that, how was your experience today?

    It's got nothing to do with being "left-wing" or "right-wing". Several decades ago we had capital punishment in this country, and Canada was no less "left-leaning" back then. In fact, in many ways it was more "left" then than it is now. Unlike some people, I'm not brainwashed to think that...

    Greyhound: Apart from that, how was your experience today?

    I suggest you stop speaking for me. You're making yourself look like a fool because you don't know a thing about me. I'm not here speaking for you, and you shouldn't be speaking for me. And you still haven't answered my question, what possible good can come out of releasing a murderer, any...

    Greyhound: Apart from that, how was your experience today?

    Their victims will never be able to walk free again, so why should they? Why should they even be allowed to live? I'm quite curious to hear your reasoning. How does releasing a "normal murderer" as you call them do society any good?

    State of the big chain grocery stores

    Yes, that would be lovely, wouldn't it? I could do my grocery shopping at the 7-11 and the Bloor Superfresh :rolleyes:

    State of the big chain grocery stores

    This is the store where I do most of my grocery shopping. I went shopping last night for the first time in a couple weeks (I'm lazy so I like to buy as much stuff as infrequently as possible as I can), and am really impressed at the ongoing renovations. They are greatly increasing the variety of...

    Greyhound: Apart from that, how was your experience today?

    He deserves to have done to him what he did to the victim. Do you really think he should EVER be allowed to be a free man again? I wouldn't be surprised if he gets what he has coming to him in prison.

    Atlanta jaunt (and bonus Toronto-by-air shots)

    I actually found L.A. to be quite urban. Downtown and much of Hollywood, Beverley Hills, Santa Monica, Venice, Marina Del Rey and numerous other areas were urban. And many of these urban areas were quite large. There were huge swaths of areas of high density with plenty of pedestrian traffic...

    Dead/Decaying Malls of Greater Toronto

    Several years ago an old indoor mall in Oakville was torn down, and has been replaced by a Home Depot and some other stores. I can't remember what the mall was called, but it was right beside (south side) the QEW.

    NYC Port Authority Bus Terminal Tower Development

    This is making me think that our bus terminal could use something like this. I didn't realize how far it extended until recently - it goes a full two blocks West of Bay Street. And if I'm not mistaken, there are a couple of surface parking lots adjacent to it. They could combine the existing...

    North York

    Great pictures. You got my brother's house in one of them. I hate those towers going up beside the mall at Bayview and Sheppard (whose name I can't recall). Who designed this garbage?

    Globe Series on Tourism in Toronto

    I don't know how "unique" this is. I live in The Annex, and there's really nothing about it that makes it different from what you can find in almost any other city. And there's really nowhere right on Bloor St. where one can linger outside (like a square with benches) other than private...

    Game over for Funland Arcade

    Funland Arcade on Yonge St. has closed I hadn't been in there in years (I'm much too old to be hanging out in some dirty video arcade filled with teenagers), but I was walking down Yonge St. and noticed that the old "Funland" arcade has closed shop. It's kind of a little sad for me, because...

    Toronto Eaton Centre

    Didn't they turn the top couple floors into office space a number of years ago? I wouldn't know personally, because I've only ever walked through the store to get to the mall.

    The Tenor (10 Dundas St E, Ent Prop Trust, 10s, Baldwin & Franklin)

    I think TL Square is a tremendous wasted opportunity. It should have a large office tower on the top IMO - something in the range of 800 feet. This would: -mean that there would be less unsightly exposed concrete that you can see from certain vantage points (from the north and west) -give...

    Downtown Brampton Update - April 30

    My observations of downtown Brampton. Though this is mostly from driving through there another a number of times - I've only briefly walked in it maybe once or twice. -the downtown is quite pedestrian friendly, but also quite small for a city of Brampton's size -there's a beautiful park...
