Sad and close night, but Nunziata got 47% of the vote. That's a significant amount, much higher than Asuma Malik, Gord Perks, Saxe, and Crawford. I guess because the alternative was 1 person as opposed to a few, it hurts a little more? But I wouldn't say someone getting 47% of the vote is...

Thanks for providing that, makes more sense. Doesn't mean it can't be taken to court, though. Bylaws and legislature can always brought to court for many reasons, including human rights violations. I still think there's a legitimate case to be made.

What makes you say that it is? What you see as "clear", I see as very unclear. The wording of "before an election" doesn't differentiate between before advanced polling or Election Day. If one considers "election" to be anytime voting can happen (i.e. start of advance polls to end of Election...

Look at that vote tally. 5k votes=a win. Some councillors have 20k+ votes (Fletcher, Matlow). This will be contested. Not showing Lai's results is putting salt into the wound for the family.

I've heard talks that there is some precedent in Canada that goes counter to what Toronto is doing here - not sure, I'm trying to find these examples. If Cynthia had died on election day would things change? What about the day after? It's insensitive to speak this way, but she died during the...

I don't think so either. He needs to stop with the comparisons to the Bay Area in every interview he gives - do you know how rich you need to be to live anywhere close to San Francisco? His platform is for rich liberals who need to feel good about themselves and make a beautiful city (for rich...

There will definitely be lawsuits against the city for this. Purposely denying people's votes (mostly visible minority voters from Scarborough) - this is US style politics. Telling people who voted for someone that their vote will not count, and they can't cast another. Insanely anti...

Anyone know who has the best shot in Ward 2 against Holyday? I know he'll probably win, but even the Star isn't endorsing anyone here, and I don't want to waste my vote.

I saw that. I don't know how they can be on the board, all of the business is conducted in French. Over here in the west end, Oger is being acclaimed so I don't get to vote, but in 2018 we had three good races in Toronto for Viamonde - this time not so much.

There are quite a few rumours about grocery. Some think a Farm Boy, others think an Independent (Loblaws banner to replace the Humberview Loblaws), also heard something about an Italian grocery store (although wouldn't that be too similar to the Bruno's next door)? Not sure. This is what I've...

That current bus stop is insane. How is that is allowed to exist legally? No legal way to cross the street, not accessible. Insane.

Not sure about all those listed, but the Humber Loop area and Park Lawn/Lake Shore in Etobicoke have higher densities than any of the communities along the lanes he is proposing. This is not a "subway for everybody" scenario. Queensway and Lakeshore should have dedicated bus and streetcar...

Not a single lane for Etobicoke. lol

I wish the would construct in a way that we could open a few stations at a time instead of waiting for the whole damn thing to be done.

Yes, totally agree. Also Re: French boards, they share a secondary school that is very close to this site, so I don't think either would be interested in this location.

I'd be interested in seeing the terms of that lease. If the TDSB co-develops the land as a new school, I don't see why they would first have to offer it to the other boards, since it would just be like a school renovation on the lands. Anyway, just adding my thoughts at how ludicrous it is that...

Is there anything stopping TDSB from evicting TCDSB here and just working with the developer, and having the new school be a new school for everyone (and not just catholics)?

Sorry to respond to this old post. But I do think the government should make it simple for government workers to work closer to home so we don't need to waste this much money on parking. There are nurses who travel hours to get to their hospital because it happened to be the hospital hiring at...

I found this interesting. " over 90% of Torontonians prefer independent businesses for specialty food, personal services, restaurants, and bars." I think it's a popular sentiment to want to be someone who prefers small businesses (or present oneself as someone who does in a survey), but people...

The Humber riding is interesting for sure, the demos and SES of the Kingsway are so different than York/Weston.
