    Rob Ford - Why the Supervillian?

    You said it better than I ever could. I want to vote for someone who has a love for this city. Nothing that Ford does or says, suggests a love for this city, the suburbs, the core or anything else.

    Requiem for Detroit

    This is an amazing documentry about the rise and fall of the Paris of the Mid-West. It also shows us why mass transit and urban design are worth fighting for here! Check it out. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1572190/

    Best Burger

    I love burgers! But I do limit myself to one per week. :( After going to all the newish places close to me, this is my ranking; 1. GBC on Charles West is the best. The beef has a nice bbq char taste to it, not too overdone, the bun and topping fresh. 2. Craft Burger on Yonge, Good, but...

    The Economist: The charms of Calgary and the gloom in Toronto

    If zero taxes and government regulation was the answer to everything, then Somalia would be a paridise on Earth.

    Good gay-friendly doctors in Toronto

    Dont forget about Hastle Free Clinic for all of your emergency "burning" issues. Seriously however, a friend of mine went there and they refered him to a gay friendly doctor, so you might want to call them.

    Ontario Budget Cut and Transit Expansion

    It could be just me, because I have lived and traveled all over the province, including a 2 month stint in Dryden :O, however I think that the rest of the province has more of a knee jerk "heads up there asses" hatered mentality towards toronto, than the other way around. Or perhaps Ive been...

    Ontario Budget Cut and Transit Expansion

    I think support for Toronto becomming it's own province just grew a lot today. It's the only way urban issues will get attention. The rest of the province doesnt give a shit about us, so we might as well go out on our own. It makes sense, so it probably will never happen.

    Dead end for a square?

    The boundries of the 4 community councils, are based on on the current Ward boundries, which were based on the federal riding boundries as of 1997( 2 to each federal riding). Scarborough is the easiest to visualize, cause it is exactly the same area as the old city of Scarborough. North...

    What happened to the SkyDome lawn?

    I dont ever think there was lawns in front of the Sky Dome, just a gravel lot. If you notice, the postcard is an artists drawing(model), not real life. And there are tonnes of trees and green spaces downtown, even if you dont include the massive green space occupied by U of T. Just because...

    What's the weather in March supposed to be like?

    So it was an evil plot by that Trudeau guy, telling the feet and inches loving public to go fuddle duddle? This is not an issue for anyone under 40, and really is not an issue for anyone over. BTW, i'm about 73 kilos and 178 centemetres. :)

    What's the weather in March supposed to be like?

    Why do you think we "foolishly jettisoned" that system which starts with an "F"?

    Forum Issues Since Relaunch (Jan 20, 2010)

    I have to agree with the design concerns the above posters have. It is hard on the eyes, a little too bright, hard to discern between posts, the banner is too big and too bold, etc. I just might not be used to the changes, however i think some adjustments are needed.

    snow removal/clearing

    You really need to get out more. Compared to other northern cities, Toronto snow removal is very good. Some smaller Ontario towns that I have lived in, the plow takes days to get to the side streets.

    HST Sales Tax

    Is there a website that shows or charts the historical tax rates in Ontario and Canada? It would come in handy for arguments with my "all taxes are evil" friends, who think things were so much better years ago before that awful McGuinty guy came along. ;)

    HST Sales Tax

    I think the real answer is to stop reading those comments in the star. Is it the same 5 grumpy old men posting those things, or 5 Albertans who need to hate on this city at all costs?
