unimaginative,
I used to think that Toronto took the cake for municipal politicians and policy makers being close-minded and not investigating how cities around the world made things work more efficiently.
Then I moved to New York. They are so hopelessly stubborn at rejecting what other cities do that I'm going to call this the "New York syndrome" from now on.
...
In another thread, it was revealed somewhere that an Environmental Assessment for a subway in Madrid takes 6 months. I hate to sound like a misanthrope, but why do we have to pay some consulting firm millions of dollars to spend 2 years making a Power Point presentation that just reveals the bloody obvious?
