Probably if it goes on, but it's not like the Ford thread didn't venture into far more tangential discussions. I first mentioned it in response to hawc's criticism that this forum is full of extreme lefties. Such dismissive nonsense seeks to undermine everyone's opinion here. What tests like this might show is how malleable the spectrum may be for many, how fuzzy any categorization might be. We move around depending on the issue, depending on how it impacts ourselves, depending on our age and social circle, depending on how close a concern is to our own experiences.Fun and all, isn't this "spectrum" discussion off-topic?
(Oh yeah, it's Mayor John Tory...zzzzzzzzz)
That is why I feel Tory and the agenda of the inner part of the suburbs, the kind of middle ring of Toronto, is where the focus of Toronto is politically now and should be. The trends you see in the city today will continue or even accelerate. The central city will shift towards being near majority high income with very few low income people left. The outer suburbs are essentially lost and will become virtually entirely low income no matter what we do to intervene. We need to shore up the middle ring of the city and provide more transit and amenities to try to spread inner city prosperity outward from the core (a weird thing to say considering this middle ring already contains some of the richest areas of the city in select regions West and East of the Yonge spine).

Oh boy, Munro really has it out for Tory, haha.
Its true. Tory did promise to end this type of mismanaged event/transit shutdown scheduling. Now that he is Mayor, it didn't happen.
Mayor John Tory to make King streetcar announcement tomorrow w/ TTC chair Josh Colle and CEO Andy Byford at 10 a.m.
rear door boarding....
