Now these same people are screaming about capacity issues with the Ontario Line.

How is this statement true when one can go over to Europe where there are many train stations which are as busy or even busier than Union which have escalators to the platform. Examples include Amsterdam Centraal and Bijlmer Station.

Exaggerate? Dude do you you live in Toronto? Walk around Toronto and compare to other world cities and come back to me. The same Toronto where they have had ugly concrete barriers in front of Union Station which could be there for the next 10 years without anyone batting an eye As for moving...

This is Toronto what do you expect. Low standards in all aspects of life here.

Not to excuse Crosslinx but how is the construction on Eglinton different from any other Toronto road construction sites or other construction sites? I drove around Keele and Finch when they building the Spadina extension and Eglinton is no different from that construction zone. If y'all are so...

Six years since this thread was started and we are still in the same spot with no progress. In some ways we are even going backwards with the impending cancellation of the TTC -GO co fare..

One of the most misguided decisions recently made in this city...

Hahaha...Well said. The hypocrisy is funny at times. We also saw this with the Scarborough LRT proposal. Elevated LRT was ok when it was in out in the boonies in Scaborough but as soon as one was proposed in Leslieville where it hits much closer to home for a lot of these people, all of a...

Yeah what's so special about Union? Many cities around the world have managed to figure out how to get escalators to the platform without any fuss.

I will be here next week when they publish their weekly hit piece against this line. They hate this line with a passion

""The presentation argued Toronto transit construction had stalled in the 1970s due to the TTC and city’s preference for expensive underground tunnelled subways."...

Another negative article from the Toronto Star about this line..

No rusting hydro poles, no wooden poles, no wires everywhere. Just charming.

I find all this noise about people not paying because they can't afford the fares a bunch of baloney. Sure there are people who can't genuinely afford the fares and that needs to be addressed. There are many others who can afford to pay and aren't paying because they feel they can get away with...

So if this is Union West, where is Union North and Union East?

If it had been the Liberals or NDP who brought the same Ontario Line there wouldn't be all this backlash. They fought against the underground subway for Scarborough because it was championed by Rob Ford and now they are fighting the Ontario Line since it is being brought forward by Doug Ford.

Sorry I don't live in Scarboorugh. I just cant stand blatant hypocrisy.

What's wrong with what I said? They did a good job exposing Metrolinx speaking privately to developers. Still doesn't excuse the almost daily weekly negative articles about the Ontario Line from them. Yes we get it. They hate the Ontario Line, but at least they could try to show some partiality...

They can call it Pearson Central.
