Not to worry - this government will not do anything competent to help the needs of those who work and are still poor- say, like cut taxes, cut the PST, etc. No, I'm afraid it's going to be costly window dressing, like this dental plan thing...

And they better be prepared to wait for the delayed completion of a unit that will not be as expected and certainly not as advertised... Whereas if you buy something that's built, it's pretty damn obvious what it is you are getting.

convention centre -- but one with good ventilation...

interesting to see if they can find a way out of that condition. It's a convection centre ready to go, but that might be a competing with the ACC. No concerts either, obviously. .... Loblaws just got beaten up a tad, and may not be so keen- as others have pointed out- to blow their brains out...

Does MLS&E still own the Gardens? Did they sell or lease to Loblaws? Terms of the lease may restrict what happens in the building.

If we truly want to make poverty, we need to improve transit so that people who cannot afford to live downtown - but, for various reasons, do- can move out to where housing costs are less, thus reducing poverty. As they would pay less for housing, the LICO stats would improve and they would no...

SPECACULAR AND RIGHT ON! Who is going to pay for this boondoggle? Would private enterprise? Hell no- then it's a bad idea and we shouldn't do it.

Given the incidents of the disease, AIDS research is WILDLY over - funded. Need more money for breast cancer research. Breast cancer is taking out women like crazy... I think it's time to stop being sexist and instead rededicate funds from AIDS to breast cancer.. what kind of woman hating...

Could be a bubble - no wait, it is a bubble...

Damn right! Hit enter without proofreading or the like- so I edited it a bit.. Be mindful of the reputations of builders as well.. but it can be difficult to get a proper read, as many owners do not want to talk down the value of their own building, etc. if it is crap.

READ THE CONTARACT CAREFULY! Be Leary of buying off spec! Better to buy something already built so that you can lay your eyes upon it! Don't worry, if you buy off spec, I can assure you:1, the unit will be LATE, 2, smaller, 3, not exactly what you thought, 4 different than in the...

Well, hopefully it will be surrounded by the City place and Maple Leaf Square things and thus be overlooked/ forgotten/ made largely irrelevant- HOWEVER- this is key:fact these towers are landmarks whether or not they're worthy of attention, the need for better design is more critical than ever-...

DO NOT HAVE CHICKEN WINGS AT THE FAN OR BILLY BOBS (Jane and Bloor.) Nice bones, to be sure, but that's about it.

Ideally, however, public tradiant would get built on the grounds that it's just plain reasonable to do so and it would not be depending on any games or billion dollar screw-ups of any kind. Transit infrastructure is expensive enough, no need to tie it to some hand grenade in the government books...

If you're lower class, your name is on your shirt. If you're middle class, your name in on your door. If you're upper class, you name is your the building. If you're a turd, you don't have to worry about shirts, doors or buildings.

Use massive amounts of tax dollars to build a shrine.... a shrine to me! .. I think it's a heck of a plan. OR- let private enterprise do with it as it will

I think artists can get away from it if they are lefty /socially progressive/ show a hate on for the Untied States. Otherwise, as the Germans woudl say, it's verboten. Using the German world is good as many Canadian artists have a huge hate on for the States- resulting in hate based Canadian...

Name I'd pay double to see are "The Robin' 'hood" Luxurious residences of the Yo Yo Mo Fo Towers.

two points: Taking stats and screwing them up- or throwing a dart at a board and saying, "See?!?" And in particular, throwing a dart at at dart board, getting some number, then labeling all who disagree racists is part of what being socially progressive is all about! There are all sorts of...

Why all this pessimism? I have every hope we won't touch this at all!
