Why won't you reveal yours?

It's a contest; wouldn't want other people entering the same thing. I'll happily tell you after it closes.

I'm sure the person who enters a pair of names first wins with that pair. Otherwise it'd be pretty dumb.

... cause the TTC never does anything dumb!

Usually repeats if they win, there is then a random draw amongst the entrants in my experience.

That makes no sense.

That makes no sense.

A draw from amongst the submitters of the name. How else is it 'fair'?

First come first served is more fair.

The TTC tendered more of the tunelling and the Highway 407 station on Friday: http://www2.ttc.ca/docs/Advertisments SP/T13SB10611.html

Many of the URLs on that page are broken - for example the page for Highway 407 station is http://www2.ttc.ca/docs/Advertisments SP/407 Package A33-1.pdf not file:///L:/docs/Advertisments%20SP/407%20Package%20A33-1.pdf

One of the candidates for regional council in York Region has a subway extension from Vaughan Corporate Centre (whatever the name of the month is) north to Rutherford Rd. as part of their election platform. Extension creep strikes again.

Thoughts, discuss.

Wow, a 4-km extension through low density ... there are however a couple of major nodes ... Vaughan Mills and Canada's Wonderland.

I guess the quesion is, does Region of York want to spend the billion or so it would take to construct this.

Then extend it to King City garbage dump afterwards.

Or for the same money build a 10 km VIVA LRT to Teston rd, which is the current edge of development in the region. Thus bringing reliable transit to more people

First run the 20 more frequently, THEN you can start talking about LRT or subways.

Those parking lots could be built on with the high density needed for efficient use of the heavy rail subway. Otherwise it just be parking lots where 325 square feet per stall would be needed for each vehicle to occupy for 9 - 10 hours per workday.
