I don't mean to be too frank but: Is this going to happen or not? The last updates on the TTC website are from 2008!
once again
Metrolinx is currently undertaking
a business case assessment for the project. A
phased option to extend the subway
initially to Steeles is being considered
due to funding constraints
edit: also keep in mind it's only been on the radar for 3 years, considering other subway projects like the sheppard subway and DRL have been studied and planned for well over a decade each in their own respect.
This was originally planned to be the VIVA BRT from Finch to Hwy 7, of which money was going to be alotted to but York Region decided to hold out on the money ( I think it was upwards of 200 million, but don't quote me), in favour of pushing the subway up to highway 7, factors such as better than expected ridership and places to grow has put more pressure on York Region to meet it's growth targets. This is one attempt by the Region to reach those targets, supported by the subway.
