    Time for one GTA transit authority?

    Really? There was a rumour regarding the Highway 2 LRT?

    Deamalgamation for Toronto and Hamilton?

    Doesn't the "megacity" of Ottawa somehow resemble the similarity with Halifax? The city proper and its outer communities (Peggy's cove, Prospect, Dartmouth, Chezzetcook)?

    Deamalgamation for Toronto and Hamilton?

    How about incorporating every area of Ontario into two cities: Toronto and Ottawa? That sounds as good as what you proposed.

    Deamalgamation for Toronto and Hamilton?

    For first time, I strongly worship this idea. Shouldn't local developments be governed by a ward rather than a entire city as a whole (unless otherwise draws interest to municipal, regional or provincial matters)?

    Time for one GTA transit authority?

    No wonder the politicians can't do a simple math. Like doctors being illiterate in nutrition, politicians aren't taught to be fluent in planning and development.

    Next Mayor of Toronto?

    And how so is governmental "debt" an actually useful tool? Care to elaborate please?

    Eglinton LRT- Skytrain Beams Vs. Median Right-of-Way

    The "psychological barrier" seems like nothing more than an aesthetic "eyesore". It's probably NIMBYism that lingers around most of the residents that prevents it. Like new subways are built strictly underground in Korea because its citizens are annoyed by the train noises aboveground...

    Time for one GTA transit authority?

    Doesn't most of these trasnit agencies (except TTC) work together with Metrolinx? These municipal transit agencies present the future transit expansion plan, hand it over to Metrolinx, and let its BoD determine how would it be constructed and be operated? They could consult and hire foreign...

    Next Mayor of Toronto?

    Hmm... Is RF leading in the polls just a media scare?

    Does anybody here know the "advertising revenue" of TTC?

    Toronto 361 The West Mall | 60.35m | 19s | Turner Fleischer

    Is there any plan from T.O. about future intensification along the West/East Mall strip? Or are the lands slowly being open to developers for more condos?

    Mississauga (non-mall) Retail

    One retail (or resto) is soon to be opened in Heartland. It's called "Wok Box". From what I hear, it's some Asian food franchise based in Alberta... Probably a rival to Manchu Wok or perhaps Spring Rolls.

    Rossi promises traffic tunnel

    I don't know if you can answer this, but how can you explain that TO is able to manage a 1km of 6-lane freeway tunnel for under a billion? A tunnel value itself, definitely but with EA, contractors and other costs added in construction does this mean that Toronto can pay for the value of the...

    Rob Ford's Transit plan

    In fact, cars should be banned during weekdays along Dundas from Chinatown to Yonge St!

    Should e-bikes be licensed?

    Isn't Segway illegal in Canada? Are there any regulations in Ontario regarding electric non-automotive vehicles other than speed limits?

    Rob Ford's Transit plan

    How hard is it to make certain streets and roads car-free zone in Canada?

    Rossi promises traffic tunnel

    Pardon my ignorance, but just how would $30~$40Bil would be spent solely on highways? EA? Hiring contractors? Deploying construction workers and dealing with their wage/salary? Tunnel-boring machines? Cost of expropriation and restitution? Traffic costs? I'd bet half of all those cost would be...

    Rossi promises traffic tunnel

    Another politics as usual. Toronto's mayoral showdown come down to Smitherman, Ford and Pantalone. Should any one of the wins mayoral election, I wouldn't be surprised if Loco Rossi [no pun intended] fails to carry out any subway plans while selling most of Toronto's assets; Frivolous George...

    Rob Ford's Transit plan

    Does RF get endorsements from anyone in GTA other than Nunziata and "right-wing" voters? This plan sounds obscenely bad.
