Ed Drass of the Metro daily transit paper has a column today on the TTC’s promotional ideas. The column includes a nod to Spacing‘s round-around experience with the TTC: we approaced them with a few ideas in hand (not revealing what they were) and were told by staff that we could not present them with any ideas because the TTC would have to tender a contract for them. We countered “but you don’t know what our ideas are so how can you tender a contract?”
Alice Smith, the TTC’s marketing manager, says in the Metro column today, “I don’t recall speaking to [Spacing] myself, but I’d be happy to chat with [them] further and explore things.â€
Don’t expect us to be annoucing anything any time soon, but we are happy to hear/read those words. Stay tuned.

gee whiz… it’s about time.
There needs to be a big shakeup at the TTC, seriously.
