What amazes me is that there is rail infrastructure from Malton around YYZ all the way downtown to Union Stn.

When I was doing my MBA at York before life's responsibility (kids) set in, they were talking about extending the Spadina subway line all the way to the campus.
My son has graduated and my youngest daughter's graduation next spring will precede the opening of the YU TTC subway Station.
Maybe there is hope for my grandkids?
Miller didn't do anything for the city either. I agree. Especially his last term.

Remember in 07 they tacked on that $60 vehicle tax?? Well the roads are still crap, and the TTC hasn't improved its service. VIVA/YRT actually has better service than TTC.

That was the year we moved to Newmarket, and the reason was the vehicle fee (in addition to all the other "fees" Toronto added in the last few years). There was no way that on top of the provincial registration fees, we were gonna pay an extra $240 to register our four vehicles.
