    Richmond Hill Yonge Line 1 North Subway Extension | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    While I still can't believe there's a case being made for a station at High Tech Road, I am somewhat amused that it's location mirrors the "desire path" of the early 2000's when I worked at that Home Depot and regularly cut through the fences there to get across to the bus terminal. This was...

    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    My initial thoughts were similar to yours.

    Next Mayor of Toronto?

    He spoke at a university event earlier this year where he told us he had not attended post secondary school. As for the streetcar thing, I heard him on CBC making those statements but they were in response to Toronto awarding Bombardier the bid without consulting the province in regards to...
