The announcement is a “huge, huge, huge victory for the people of Scarborough, for the city of Toronto,” said Mr. De Baeremaeker, who also is a TTC commissioner.
The province has put the city in a tough position. It's either they accept this inferior option or they find a way to find a way to fund their plan. Your move next!

The arrogance of Glen Murray is sickening! He should go back to Winnipeg where he belongs!
I really think that this was done out of spite by the province. I can't see how anyone would think this is a good plan.

I don't think this is a terrible plan. It seems weird that this proposal removes Ellesmere, Midland and McCowan stations but these stations are all REALLY underused. Much better than the Miller plan which makes the SRT conversion/extension dependent on the Sheppard LRT, which is so bizarre that I swear that this was done solely to force the widely hated Sheppard LRT to be built.

Murray and Duguid say they don't really care what council thinks of their new subway plan -- that they're paying. TTC will be the owner

So does this mean that even if council votes against this, the province will go ahead with this plan?
So we have a funded lrt plan, this inferior subway plan which is funded, and an unfunded pipe dream thrown by the city in which all the stars has to align. Which one to pick?
