You've basically described yourself. You're so obsessed with labeling people as either pro or anti-suburbs, nothing else matters.
I suggest you re-read the thread because kettal isn't the one who brought up Hurontario, and more than one person, including yourself, has taken issue with the idea that it isn't pedestrian friendly for the most part.
It's great the forum has an "ignore" feature.
Pro- or anti-suburbs has nothing to do with it: what you are is a moron for failing to appreciate the many degrees of pedestrian friendliness between a 400-series highway and Queen Street.
edit - other people, including myself, take issue, in a thread questioning stereotypes, with places being deemed only either pedestrian friendly or unfriendly instead of existing on a continuum derived from a host of complex measurements. There's more to it than pre-war = friendly, post-war = unfriendly. There's more to it than "well, it looks unfriendly" or "it's unfriendly because I say so." Who gets to decide what's measured or the weight of various measurements? Yonge & Wellesley is undeniably pedestrian friendly, but the sidewalks are so narrow that people are constantly forced to step into traffic or walk on the road at the intersection. Is Bay & Wellesley more friendly because the sidewalks are metres wider and the intersection, frankly, less dangerous?
