Perhaps you and I spend our time in different circles of the internet. I'm not saying there never has been any enforcement, period, against cyclists, but in the circles of the internet where I move I see an inordinate amount of vitriol towards e-bikes and scooters. Advocating for their ban is a...

I'm not saying that users who put others in danger shouldn't be penalized, but it is beyond ridiculous that electric micromobility device users are being singled out, as though there aren't regular bikers who can harm others by being inattentive. I see lots of analog bike riders who ride around...

Funny, I almost never see cyclists wearing helmets. Hope these pigs are as consistent in their application of helmet rules to cyclists, who are driving a more dangerous vehicle to themselves than a scooter.

What exactly did you think the fate of the Scarborough RT was? Because I see zero parallels whatsoever.

Related viewing: Very old video, but every word still sadly rings true.

At this point the Democrats should disband. How inept do you have to be to lose to that foul redneck twice?

Linear park doesn't strike me as a useful use for this corridor. Who would go there? It's an industrial wasteland, unpleasant to look at and be in. Maybe the section east of Brimley...

Always sad to see a piece of history passing away like this. The little train that couldn't.

I still have no idea what they were huffing when they did that. Heaven forbid people are given a variety of tools to help them understand the world around them!

Didn't they implement this "new and improved" signage only a couple of years back?

Is this a helpful response? No links, no key words to search, just... go back through the thread an unknown amount of posts until we find the answer?

Not sure whether the bigger fool is the person who reads this and accepts it as being Trudeau's fault as though Trudeau knows the faintest thing about trains, or the person who would vote for him, believing him to be fit for the task of governing a country, for no reason other than the fact that...

Then they can extend it eastward via Quebec and the Maritimes all the way to Europe and Japan!

Yes. I essentially agree with most of the above, but I find these two particular nitpicks to be fairly apropos of nothing. The worst name by far is Brampton Innovation District. On its own, it's a vapid name of no substance, meaning nothing... as a station name it's even worse.

Anyone know why this thread vanished for a few hours and came back with all the e-bike ban posts gone?

LMAO, how is 5 minutes not frequent? I promise you the absolute majority of people will not balk at having to wait 5 minutes for the next service. It's a trivial length of time. You don't make a "successful RT" by catering to fringe cases. If someone is turned off by using a service that runs...

There is not a single person currently alive who will still be alive when/if the relief Line reaches Burlington or Oshawa, so I think this is a lagely moot discussion.

Ah okay. I misread the tone of your post. My apologies.

Are you implying Canadian drivers are more civilized than European ones!? There are lots of awful drivers in Europe, especially in Italy and France, but the situation on the roads there pales in comparison with what one sees on the roads in Toronto every day.

Not only that, but their insistence on running subways, and deep tunneled subways at that, in places where an LRT would suffice. Other communities get crumbs because mounds of the transit budget are swallowed by megalomaniacal subway projects.
