If re-implementing the vehicle tax would be unfeasible in the short term - then how about road tolls or congestion charges? It seems fair. If I do not want to pay the road toll or congestion charge I can walk, bike, take transit or take a longer route with my car. Nobody is forcing me to pay...

Maybe they can paint some windows and balconies....:rolleyes:

Most politicians are gutless, like rats deserting a sinking ship. Just wait.

I think the scary part is that deep down Rob Ford and his sycophants agree with Mary Trapani Hynes' modest proposals and their outcomes. She summed up exactly what Rob Ford's Toronto will be like.

Library use is increasing, yet only 1 new library has been built in Toronto in the last 10 years. I hardly think Lastman and Miller were going wild with the spending and building "liberries", as D.Ford says, willy-nilly. I may not use the library, but I don't mind paying for it, if it can...

MLSE didn't care about the building, now that someone else fixed the place up, they are worried that a 2000 seat arena at a University will compete with the 19000 ACC. St Mike's Majors left town because MLSE was worried that a junior minor team would steal fans from the almighty Maple Leafs if...

Perhaps what Doug Ford meant was that he doesn't "know" Margaret Atwood in the biblical sense.....

I don't care that Doug Ford doesn't know who Margaret Atwood is. If some left leaning politician couldn't name the captain of the Maple leafs, Ford nation would spas out. What bugs me is that the Ford Bros. keep treating proposals as done deals. They bully people into getting their way. The...

Yeah, I don't think Rob Ford wants to walk around the city. He doesn't really like jeers and boos.

It is interesting that the producers chose the MCC as a stand in for a European city. I suspect they will use CGI to spruce things up, you know, add street-life...(cheap shot!) I am curious, but where was the actual filming location?

Per Drum118 pictures on June 29, it looks like the road was already paved. Am I missing something?

Yeah, what's with the anti-intellectual sentiment from conservatives??? I mean don't parents like libraries and getting kids to read instead of watching tv or video games? Aren't conservatives all for "family values"? Hmm, I get it now. For Robbie and Dougie, "gravy" is everything except...

Cyclists should just pretend the bike lanes still exist. Mayor Doug Ford and his cronies have this idea that bicycles are recreational means of transportation. As though a person riding on the street is some selfish person tying up traffic just for exercise or fun, and not someone who wants to...

I like the glass balcony on tower E. I am intrigued now by how the wave pattern on the glass will affect the overall appearance of the tower. I must add that the podium does look a lot better at ground level than from a distance. However, I do not like the balconies on the podium. I think...

Yes! It is a massive conspiracy put in motion by the tow truck operators and body shops....

These KPMG reports are getting ridiculous. It's like they are not even trying now to hide any bias. They are preaching to the Ford choir. http://www.thestar.com/news/article/1026485--licensing-makes-big-money-but-consultant-tells-toronto-to-consider-cuts-anyway?bn=1

Actually, looking at the rendering, the top floors looks like they have that powder blue spandrel. Just saying is all. I don't disagree with you, grey would look good, even black.

My comment was indeed made in jest. Rob Ford is the Homer Simpson of Toronto. See the episode "Trash of the Titans" (if you haven't) - what happens when a nonsensical raving loudmouth is elected to public office.

Perhaps Rob Ford is planning to cut all services, lay everyone off, wait a while, then reinstate the services with a new collective bargaining agreement? He isn't that clever, or is he?
