Ford needs to be asked why he thinks he as a provincial premier is entitled to a private jet with an intercontinental range? What is his justification for this purchase? The Governor of California Gavin Newsom doesn't have a dedicated private jet. When Newsom flies it is often on California law...

The biggest ever military miscalculation by an American president. Not even George W. Bush would have been this stupid. Iran is not Venezuela or Syria or Grenada or Iraq for that matter. Iran is one of the great civilizational countries with a history of over 3000 years. With a population of...

I predicted this in this post > https://urbantoronto.ca/forum/threads/billy-bishop-airport-expansion.43019/post-2370359 Toronto has what Chicago only wishes it still had. A lakefront airport mere minutes to the financial downtown core. If expanded Billy Bishop would become to Toronto what...

The fact that Trump started this war without having a good plan for winning it is the least of Trumps problems. Trump's unprovoked attack on Iran at the behest of another country is considered a war crime which has been compounded by more war crimes after another, e.g. targeting the children of...

I don't know why you suspect this to be AI. Iran is renowned for its subway stations and there are many videos on Youtube that are clearly not AI such as this video of a metro station in Tehran that is dedicated to the Virgin Mary. Mary is the only female mentioned in the Quran where Mary and...

After what the world has witnessed over the last 40 days in the Middle East, I would hope that Canada is not still contemplating purchasing billions of dollars in conventional weapon systems such as submarines, "stealth" fighters or frigates i.e. weapon systems that were used to fight the wars...

A lot of "smoke" from where? Did you watch the video of the "dark factories" in China that I linked above? If China can build factories that have so few human workers that they can operate with the lights off most of the time, why would you believe that China uses "forced labor"? THINK!

Carney defends Canada's approach to forced labour amid fallout from floor-crossing MP's comments "Prime Minister Mark Carney defended Canada's efforts to keep products made with forced labour out of the supply chain as one of his newest MPs continues to face backlash for appearing to cast doubt...

London (UK) City airport is also un-scalable, but it is thriving and popular because of its unmatched convenience offering direct access to the financial capital of Europe. For example, British Airways flies an A319 in all business-class configuration from London City to JFK. The flight has the...

I learned the hard way last night that the Beer Store just north of Winchester is closed until February 11th for renovations. I trekked through the freezing cold with a shopping cart of empties only to find it closed and ended up having to throw away $5.50 in empties before heading next door to...

What's with all these INS markets opening up downtown? They are the biggest ripoff! Of course, convenience stores have always been on the expensive side, but INS is next level ripoff. The last time I was in an INS was the store on Carlton Street and the price tags for most of the products had...

Chinese EVs won't need rebates because they will sell like hotcakes at their low price-points. Almost every EV sold in Canada over the last 10 years have been American made. Only recently did Canada start building an EV model the Dodge Charger EV (haven't seen any on the streets yet). For over...

It angers me to see that Carney is looking to offer rebates of up to $5,000 on EV's worth $50,000. Why is the government funding the purchase of private vehicles. I don't own a car and never will be able to afford a car so why should my tax dollars go to EV rebates? The 50,000 Chinese EVs coming...

Defence minister rejects call for Canada to get nuclear weapons - Toronto Star LINK TO ARTICLE I don't know why this should be a decision for David McGuinty. It should be obvious to anyone with half a brain who has paying attention to Trump over the last year that it is URGENT that Canada gets...

I don't know how Trump can withstand the many bombshell revelations in this latest release of Epstein files. He is mentioned countless times and a total of 37 of his close associates are named in the release including Howard Lutnick, Elon Musk and Kevin Warsh who Trump just announced as his new...

Huh? I posted above that the FAA grounded the 737 max for almost 2 years https://urbantoronto.ca/forum/threads/president-donald-trumps-united-states-of-america.26622/post-2344891 "To those who say "this is all about safety" I have trust in the FAA. In the past the FAA has not been reluctant to...

The below cartoon says it all: Would you buy a home security system from a guy bent on robbing your home? Would you?

There is no good reason for Transport Canada not to follow the lead of the FAA which is the most trusted and respected aviation authority in the world. The FAA awarded Gulfstream conditional airworthiness certification for the Gulfstream G700 and G800 in January 2024 long before Trump became...

I thought once the FAA certifies an aircraft type that Transport Canada usually follows soon after. In January 2024 the FAA granted the Gulfstream 700 and 800 conditional airworthiness certifications granting limited time exemption from fuel icing rules until December of this year. If Transport...

Great to see the reconstituted heritage facade being revealed so soon. They did an amazing job when you consider the facade was rebuilt brick by brick. When you go back to Google street view circa 2021 this building didn't look like it was worth preserving but I am glad that they did. I'm...
