    Latest Federal polls

    A Green-NDP party would be great, and I think fits in really well with the way both parties hold their values. Such a coalition would definitely be able to lead Canada well.

    September 11th: Real or Fraud?

    Getting into a different issue, but that's a total falsification of facts. Basically 99.9% of all scientists with a scientific opinion on the matter agree that the Earth is getting far warmer than what could be normally expected. A vast majority still hold the opinion that it's humans and...

    Rob Ford's Transit plan

    I'd say that transit should just be seen as a separate issue. Thompson's plan definitely makes the most sense (including her funding strategy,) but other than that no candidate's plan is perfect, and will just need to take the more ordinary citizens pestering council, the TTC, and Metrolinx to...

    Rob Ford's Transit plan

    The only conservative part of her campaign is money management, balancing the city's budget and making the city more efficient. Other than that, she definitely is the most progressive candidate out there, basically exactly what the city needs. But at least if we got Smitherman, we'd be off...

    September 11th: Real or Fraud?

    But the number of global warming skeptics in the scientific community is vastly, vastly outnumbered by the amount of people who support the theory. I believe it's somewhere in the 99th percentage point of all scientists with an opinion on the matter. It's very similar for "9/11 skeptics,"...

    Quran burning: How media and world leaders are the ones pouring gas on the flames?

    It's implied. And when you have people that dedicate themselves to following it's teachings, it becomes a calling out against them. How do you think that a physicist would feel if someone came up to them and said that quantum mechanics is the stupidest idea ever, then burned a copy of A Brief...

    Quran burning: How media and world leaders are the ones pouring gas on the flames?

    If you'd like to criticize Islamic extremists through use of media, then you're fine to do that, just as you're fine to criticize homophobes in the hip hop community. But there's still one fallacy that crosses the line, mixing up extremists with the community as a whole. It's just a fallacious...

    September 11th: Real or Fraud?

    1. Because they fully denied it. 2. Because we've had hundreds of experts in the fields of politics, engineering, and aviation that said everything pointed to a plane hijacked by terrorists crashing into the WTC and Pentagon, bringing down the twin towers and WTC 7. 3. Because terrorists...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    May I suggest a marathon every sunday then? Then people will be used to it :P

    The Toronto Accent(s)

    That's because there is no french word to derive off of; french for school is ecole, vs. skolos/skola in greek/latin.

    Time To Accelerate Freeway Teardowns?

    ^^ But if the highway might currently serve to be a redundant barrier and eyesore to that area of the city, does it not become an issue?

    Downtown Rapid Transit Expansion Study

    Okay then, it's fascinating how it's taking so long to not even get started into the EA for the DRL, while TC planning, estimated at the time for $6 billion and with 7 times the lines, took under two.

    Rob Ford - Why the Supervillian?

    I thought you were intentionally pulling a Rob Ford. It would have been quite fitting

    Rob Ford - Why the Supervillian?

    Is it just me, or did you do something clever there?

    Isabel Bader Centre for the Performing Arts (Queen's, Kingston, Snohetta)

    The exterior looks kind of boring and unimagined, but the interior of the hall looks amazing! Not sure if that's supposed to be wood or stone (I'll guess wood,) but the design look spectacular.

    Movies that feature Toronto

    I believe a lot of Asylum movies are filmed in Toronto and the GTA... not that I'd know by watching any of them or anything, of course. And that's not quite something to be proud of either.

    Property taxes

    No, I'm not talking about stock investors. I'm talking about small business owners, white collar and blue collar employees. Many of these people and their families have been totally torn up in the past couple years, all because people knew that a lassez-faire government would allow them to...

    Property taxes

    That's kind of the point. The government was incompetent/corrupt. EDIT: Not that I'm even for communism. In fact, my dream economy is probably the furthest away from centrally planned you could get.
