Aren't the subtle pieces of flare on street signs enough? You don't want to exploit a neighbourhood's heritage to the point where it ends up becoming a ghetto.

The IOC tallies the medal count by golds, not total medal count. After all... isn't first place what it's all about.

Skew your data anyway you like. You may discount Sheppard as an 'extension' but the Downsview extension was completed in 1996.

Alvin hit this one on the nose. Either that, or the management could use a good routing by Gordon Ramsey on Kitchen Nightmares. When I went, the food was awful, and the waiters were all dressed like seamen (insert joke here). By my guess, Captain John's has only been surviving off of...

please delete "naonecells" and the spam advertising...

One of the announcers at the time was more disgusted that they appeared to be semi-nude, while newspapers are focusing on the disrespect towards the aboriginals. I wonder if they thought this one up after watching Avatar

It's the old CNoR sub that led from Toronto to Ottawa. I sketched this up a while ago... http://maps.google.ca/maps/ms?hl=en&safe=off&ie=UTF8&t=h&msa=0&msid=116910688688129869106.00046159f1819ba3cfee2&ll=43.774317,-79.218979&spn=0.185432,0.440483&z=12

What, did they have left over drummers from the Beijing Olympics?

There's a little bit of controversy surrounding the Russian figure skating pair of Oksana Domnina and Maxim Shabalin. Apparently the costumes they wore during the competition were already toned down versions of what they were originally supposed to wear, so they already knew they were skating...

The land north of the 401 is relatively flat... as it was a heavy rail corridor at one point in time.

Hey folks, I don't know if this has been posted, but I pulled the Transit City shapefile and Toronto neighbourhoods shapefile off Toronto Open today, and played around with it a little. Some things of note are the WWLRT and SRT are included, as well as a connection between the Jane LRT and St...

They might prefer an actual company.

Is it that they don't realize, or that they don't care. The Winter and Summer games are completely two different animals. Even on TV, NBC has done and continues to do a terrible job covering the games, especially when comparing to the way the Canadian networks have.

Sorry... I saw that you only had 13 posts thus far. (the newby alert went off)

There's no need for the subway to extend that far east. Durham Region is planning for an LRT Route across Kingston, with a possible connection at Morningside and Sheppard with Transit City lines.

I get the feeling that bird didn't pay for it's ride...

Have you not looked at the preferred plan? There are physical barriers that prohibit those stations. Isn't varying topography a bitch?

The station at Centennial College will have to suit that purpose.

Instead of this thread having a link to an article about an article... here is the orignal article from the national post in question: http://www.nationalpost.com/news/canada/toronto/story.html?id=2552831

Agreed. This thread was set up for construction updates only, and the creator states that he does not any other discussion such as the pros and cons. And yet, he still got his shot in. Wipe the thread, or change the name to the proper terminology.
