huh?
Because city council rejected Scarborough-Eglinton crosstown and Scarborough rejected the Transit City plan
Perhaps you should actually know the details of the plan before lecturing?

If the Eglinton East extension is truly what people would accept, then we wouldn't have anyone lobbying for the SSE as we do in here.
People would gladly see it cancelled in favour of the Crosstown East extension, with perhaps some money left for another line.
Unfortunately the continually escalating cost of this one line extension means there's no money for a Crosstown East extension.
Another reason it's such a ridiculous idea.
I agree, so why wouldn't the pro-LRT get along with the Scarborough-Eglinton crosstown while they had the chance?

And you accuse me of not being able to read.
For the record, the Scarborough-Malvern LRT, which evolved into the Crosstown East, was canceled by Ford.
False, lack of political will at all level who can't see past the next election is the responsible. The 9th or 10th economy on the planet being broke is the greatest lie told to Canadians
I'd agree with the first part, but not the second. The city isn't broke, but the distribution of taxes leaves little for the city to actually build with.
Subways isn't the problem, it's digging in those areas that is. Paris, London, Chicago, New York and others have subways in similar areas as Scarborough but they have no problem elevating them when digging makes no sense.
There are also massive density differences between Paris, London, NYC and Toronto.
Paris not only has a subway, it has something else...

I don't need to provide a reason. You're not a good reader/listener. I said many time that I was against the 1 stop subway.
You must be addressing a mirror, as there's no reasonable expectation that I should be able to hear you.
This thread is debate on the merits of a Scarborough subway. If you want to be taken seriously I'd think providing actual, factual reasons would make a lot of sense.
