If you want to move people faster arguing for more drivers is the worst option.
And if you lived in Toronto you'd understand that driving east/west on College or Dundas takes the same amount of time but one of them has a bike lane.
Ford passed the legislation for ripping up the bike lanes TODAY!!

FF is a fool with no solutions. I think the best option for parking would be to build more underground pay parking and not allow parking on the roads at all times of the day. Not just the busy hours.
You said there is only shopping on the 3 or so blocks at Yonge and Bloor.
If that's the case, kill all parking spots on the rest of Bloor so more people can drive and bike through.
Your goal is to move more people across toronto and make sure they don't stop or shop locally, right?
Funny, you say I have no solutions and then quote the solution I suggested.
win for me
So you aren't interested in moving people across the city, you just want to be able to drive anywhere and park anywhere personally.
You keep trying to change the terms of your reasoning.
Bike lanes have been an abysmal failure. We've tried them, so what I say is not conjecture. Experiment is over.
That was a total johnlarue post. Restate an opinion with more emphasis.
Repeating uninformed opinions louder and louder doesn't do anything but make you look more uninformed.
No you said why do we need parking. Once again no solution. Just complain about a problem.
Shack's 'born and raised in T.O." < yeah right, sure whatever you say Shack > knowledge of Toronto is pure "drive-by".
His conception of the Annex as being the intersection of Yonge and Bloor is a pure acknowledgement of "I really never lived in/but drove-by Toronto" bullshit".
Below is a map of the real Annex for real Torontonians, not the drive-by "you do as we tell you to do" dyed in the wool suburbanites', bullshit, faux-Toronto's Annex:
Screw off drive-by motorists.
Fuck up your own neighborhoods, not ours.

And I said better to build more underground parking and not allow parking on the main roads. And kill bike lanes. See a solution for all.

Not for those of us who live downtown.
How about add a congestion charge for those who just want to drive through.
Add more bike lanes and transit, they move more people downtown and about 50% of people downtown don't have cars.
How about add a loitering charge until the bike lanes are paid off. Based on ridership that should take about 1000 years.
