Mississauga Transitway Public Meeting I got a totally different perspective from the meeting. I thought city staff did an excellent job answering most questions, especially when most of the questions are all hypothetical (schedules and designs) and won’t really be answered until 2012...

Beautiful and Close Visited Riverdale Farm for the first time since I was like 6 years old. I also visited this cute little chapel with a beautiful gate leading into a cemetary across the street from it. I didn't realize how close it was to the downtown core. Absolutely beautiful...

Sad to see it move I brought a group of first time visitors into the store last night. Its kind of sad their moving. However, they had terrible customer service and everytime I heard a customer ask for a particular book they would never have it. Louroz

The Truth about Brampton Transit unimaginative2, I agree with the extension to York University and up to and only to Steeles. The business case for an extension to "Vaughan Corporate Centre" was never there and won't be there for at least another 25 years. The fact that the new City Hall...

It helps that the former finance minister represents one of the ridings the subway is heading for and where his family owns convinently large pieces of land ripe for development. That being said, our best hope is that the proposed VCC extension is re-evaluated by Metrolinx and never sees the...

Traffic Balance on Hurontario As someone who actually uses and lives just off Hurontario, I'm also opposed to taking away any lanes off the road. I know the traffic patterns pretty well having grown up in this area all my life, and I agree with the Commissioner that its unfeasible. In my...

No subway to Sherway Gardens. We should not be spending billions of tax dollars to extend and redirect a subway line to a shopping mall surrounded by highways on the east and south sides, an industral park to the north and a river to the west. All TTC reports I've read has ruled out...

I really like it, and I want one in Mississauga! Louroz
