There is no shovel in the ground.
The Ford subway station is still costed at $3 billion for the one station.

Ford killed Transit City, which was fully funded and wouldn't cost the city anything and instead gave us a 30 year tax increase to pay for his non existent, $3 billion subway stop.
And you really think that's smart?
All levels approved the subway not just Ford.
Shovels in the ground is only a matter of time, many projects fall into this category.
They should pay more if that would help it start sooner. Long overdue.

Thanks for acknowledging that the democratically elected councilors did what was best for the people that elected them and removed all of the significant powers from your 'best mayor ever'.

Nah it was a political stunt and not something constituents requested or voted for. So in essence, council did not follow democratic process and just acted on their own like a mob and went against people who voted for Ford.

You obviously don't know how democracy work.

Councilors: Hello constituents, we need to decide where to put the new Keurig in the lunchroom. We will be holding a general election.

Right?
No wonder your name is 'boob'.

If there were enough 'Ford'-friendly' councilors (elected by the people), then his powers would never have been taken away.
But there weren't... so the will of the people was carried out.
Sorry you can't comprehend that.

The "will of the people" was not consulted. And electing councillors vs electing a mayor are two different things.

Anyway, all those pesky useless councillors are gone and the city is just fine. Payback is a bitch.

That useless crackhead mayor is also gone, and the city is better off except that we could have had transit solutions that were fully paid by the province built by now.
Instead all we got was a 30 year tax increase from the crackhead.

Again, you have no idea how democracy works.
"We have to install a new water fountain... general election is pending".

The city is fine because the crackhead mayor is gone. Long gone, and good riddance.

Water fountain? You need to stop typing the random words the voices in your head are uttering.
Gone but not forgotten...the only thing forgotten are those useless councillors that were tossed out like yesterday's trash
Ironic that Rob Ford wanted to reduce council and managed to get it done even after he passed away. He was right all along.
