So please explain how calling me Anti-LRT and Anti-Transit is not resorting to insults? I've yet to hear you respond to that question.

Truthiness? Sounds about right.

If he had to choose between funding a few LRT's, a few subways or nothing, he'll choose the LRTs or nothing options because they are much cheaper for his government that SOS expensive plans!
Calm down...you are not getting new subway lines anytime soon!

All the power to him if that works....
The flip side is that nobody will even know his name come election time. People will have been hearing names like Thomson, Smitherman, Ford and Rossi for months. But Pantalone? Who's that guy?
Ask around among your family and friends. Don't take my word for it. See how many have even heard of the guy, let alone are willing to vote for him.
I second what Keithz is saying, what the hell are you basing this on? Can you provide ANY sort of reference to back up your claim?

With so many people in Scarborough, Etobicoke and North York that do not vote, I expect the other former cities to bring Pantalone to power!

I spoke to Hudak and he talked about going in the opposite direction to McGuinty's out of control spending. He discussed a conservative agenda where he would spend money on things that we definitely need and subways are not one of them.
Again calm down...we are not getting subways anytime soon! Embrace TC for now!

Stop crapping all over the SELRT when you have no idea what it would do!

So you have no evidence to back up your hypothesis which goes against the general trend of pronouncements made by all the PC leadership candidates during the party leadership race. Your lack of supporting evidence is duly noted.
And I will be enjoying a new subway line soon. TYSSE is on its way. And if Smitherman wins, there'll be a subway to STC. That's a start. But I'll be happy to see the SELRT too. Something better than nothing right? And it'll be worth it to see how Torontonians react to spending that much on a line from Don Mills to ...Conlins? I'm looking forward to seeing how Malvernites react as they head to STC on a bus riding right by the billion dollar LRT. It'll be an eye-opener for sure. ....and I suppose I feel happy for all the people that rid the Sheppard bus who now get a bit more elbow room. Awesome for them! If you live in Dean Park though, you are screwed.

You so obviously don't live in the former city of Toronto. Either that, or your family and friends are a bunch of political simpletons to the nth degree.

Hysterical much?
Did Hudak say that subway are not needed or is that rhetorical flourish on your part?
As for talk about controlling out of control spending, that does not mean building cheaper LRTs. That means building nothing at all. You are really delusional if you think Hudak would support a Miller/McGuinty initiative. Even the rest of the LRT fan club on here won't back you on that one.

Juan, you're hilarious.
I enjoy reading your cool, calm and collected posts in largely a sea consisting of nonsensical subway only propaganda!

Actually both items (Smitherman winning and a subway to STC) will not happen!

You're right. I don't live in the former city of Toronto. My ties are all suburban 416. And not a single person I know is voting for Pantalone. But my anecdotal evidence aside, why is Pantalone fairing so poorly in the polls?

Agreed. It's hilarious to think that Hudak, Mike Harris' son-in-law will fully support an idea by an NDP mayor and a Liberal premier. You can't make this stuff up!
