I think you vastly over estimate any demographic shifts that have happened in the 416. For every young professional in a 'suburb in the sky' there is a suburbanite empty nester that is getting older and as such is progressively voting at a much higher rate. Plus, have to remember that it is still 9 months out, plenty of time for people to flesh out alternatives to transit city and the current ttc operating structure that might appeal to urban condo dwellers. Plus, can always point out to the urban core that Transit City is just another subsidy from the core to the suburbs (has worked in the past re:Sheppard).
Also, I am not sure how Hume turned what was basically a 'I want to examine transit city to make sure the TTC is't screwing up and going way over budget like St Claire (and plus lets get our operating house in order and make sure we can afford it)' into 'will cancel transit city'.
