  1. I am glad to see the Globe and Mail article is praising what I so frequently do: Toronto, for some people, is a city of sin. And that’s okay. Leave your morals in Buffalo!

  2. $40 million dollars to shave off seven minutes of travel time to York U…

    Wouldn’t it be cheaper (and faster to implement) if they simply increased the number of buses on the 196 route so that people aren’t stuck waiting 5+ minutes for buses to arrive/board/leave for York?

  3. I see the police are blaming bike owners for not having better locks.
    They should be sued for turning a blind eye to thieves and using their manpower to discourage cycling in so many ways.

  4. I don’t got to York but know friends that do and bus numbers is their greatest complaint.

    A world class city is not a world class city without a world class rail system(look at new york, london, ect..)

    Where the heck is the link to the airport??? Do we not want to be a world class city to a wonderful country???? Sell all buses, buy energy-saving LRT’s and build proper rail systems(*especially to the subburbs)(**and the GO is acceptable, just add more stops)

    Please!!!
