Where are the protests in support of the subway expansion eastwards??? http://www.thestar.com/news/gta/transportation/article/1276726--ttc-reopens-scarborough-subway-debate-in-surprise-move

So what d'you folks think about Greece? It's so sad to me. Always hanging by a thread... ...I think it would be best if they just kicked them out of the eurozone. :/

Here they mention potential federal funding... http://toronto.ctv.ca/servlet/an/local/CTVNews/20120611/mayor-rob-ford-ttc-sheppard-120611/20120611?hub=TorontoNewHome Suppose that Ford gets some of that sweet funding for eastbound expansion. Is there anything to stop that expansion from...

Is it possible for Ford to block the construction of the sheppard LRT? Subway is clearly superior for part of that distance.

I used to like the leafs. But then they changed this team completely. It does not have that character that it used to. I just don't have much love for it. And then to get verseteeg from chicago for like nothing, and to lose him to florida (where he's producing like a point per game) for...

What is the current state of affairs in the attempt to expand the sheppard subway? Sorry for not hanging around much... been so busy. :/

I am surprised that they prefer the canadian dollar to the norwegian krona. But anyways, suppose they took the dollar... they won't be able to print it!

I would like to see a permanent funding solution. Like a casino or something that will always sends revenues towards subway construction. So that this would be used for future subway construction, not just a little bit of sheppard. Lets keep in mind, some people are willing to travel in...

:) I'd be happy if they extend it any bit. Of course, I want more, but heck, 2-3 stops is good enough for me for now. The thing is that many cities in the world are expanding their systems very rapidly. If they can do that surely we can get a SMALL extension...

OMAN new article just out! http://www.thestar.com/news/transportation/article/1138590--mayor-rob-ford-floats-tolls-to-finance-subways

Sorry to all those anti-subway lrt fanatics... but this is a done deal. Thought Miller's authoritarian LRT fanaticism was all okay? Now you are getting your own medicine. Enjoy...

The Liberal are just another right wing party, just not as far right as the conservative party. In other words, why look at them as having any difference? NDP! It's the only alternative. The liberals campaign on the left sometimes, only to take away NDP votes. I hope they enjoy being...

Having been in Chicago for years, I can tell you that rapid transit on the ground simply sucks so bad that you can not imagine. It 'causes such traffic problems that it's simply miserable. Underground is the better long term investment. Now you might say hey, it need not be ON THE GROUND. And so...

Durr, don't take my idea and pass it on as your own. Duurrr. That's my insanity, not yours. If Moscow can do this, why can't we? I don't get why there would be higher cost. sixrings, bro, we know you have a boner for LRT. But that crap's inferior. It's simply trolling to bother us with...

We gotta find a way. How does cutting public employee benefits, tiff districts, and slashing public school funding? Just gotta tighten the belt and hope that nobody turns blue. ^^ X(
