A very long time ago: 1820 I believe.

Some Chicago urbanists and politicians likely recognize some things that Toronto does indeed do better. However, I doubt Toronto plays much of a role at all in the minds of most Chicagoans.I've never been to Chicago so I'm curious, do they constantly compare themselves there to Toronto??

Oh, sure, I know the city got a raw deal from the province and the feds. But other cities have figured out how to deliver services far more efficiently than Toronto. Other cities have imposed unpopular user fees (road tolls, anyone?) Not Toronto.
I am disappointed with Miller. I think he talks the talk, but has big problems following through.
