Ironic imagery, given your chicken-coop-in-the-sky-eye-perch over this humble berg. Aren't you literally ensconced in that said steel, plastic and glass all day long? At least the drivers in this city (not to agree about your take on the basis for my perspective, because you're off the mark) can see what life is actually like on the ground for those living it. You are like a drone pilot stationed out of theatre, whereas drivers are the ground mechanized troops on the city battlefield, suffering the wounds that come from their poor leadership safely tucked away in their ivory towers.
I'm impressed, I really am.

You have really amped fluffed/pluffed/stuffed up, your unique "drive-by/and wave goodbye" narrative with chicken coop, military lingo allegories and symbolism.

Unfortunately, your prose is wholly unhinged and detached from reality, unless of course, you are just an oblivious, drive by and say goodbye exurban gadfly.

With great power comes great responsibility. Toronto wants to make all of the expensive decisions. It's only rational to attach those decisions to the responsibility of paying for them. You haven't forgotten that the City was given the power to tax as well, have you?
Every council vote on capital spending that has led to monumental financial and fiscal catastrophe was led by a center-right mayor and powered to infamy by a center-right council majority. These center-right majorities have wasted and squandered billions of dollars which btw consume and will continue consuming billions of dollars in ongoing operating costs.

1) The $1billion Sheppard stubway
2) The $2-3billion Scarborough subway extension.
3) The $2billion realignment of the eastern end of the Gardiner Expressway a few meters north.
4) The $1billion Smart Dumbtrack

In addition to the above financial and fiscal calamities it was the center-right mayors and center-right councils that voted in the majority to:

1) Cancel the fully Provincially funded Transit City Plan - billions of scarce resources down the drain
2) Scrap heap the Vehicle Tax - $60million a year in revenue down the drain

With that great power as you claim, these majority center-right councilors and center-right mayors have squandered the great responsibility that you also doth protest that they should be held to account for.

In addition, the TTC is the 2nd largest transit system in North America, second only NYC. Yet they are the least provincially and statewide, publicly funded transit system in N.A. by a LOT. The province used to fund the TTC, but guess what? Yes, you guessed it, the center-right provincial gov't downloaded the funding onto the backs of the taxpayers of T.O., who you pound the pulpit and wail aresacrosanct.


Spare me your drive-by musings as I know what is fancy and folly, ignorance and illusion with what is evident and true.

My lord, good man, it can't be that you want more of the same.

"Sir, can I have some more, please."

You're quite mad, you know.

You had me at "The Province should run this town". No need for further persuasion!

p.s. Good one with "stubway"!
p.p.s. Is the"quite mad" a Dark Side of the Moon reference, or something else?

The province, The Thug has since 2018 and still is.

The petty spite and tribal vendetta is quite evident.

If I were drowning at sea, I wouldn't care what the motivations were of someone who threw me a lifebuoy.

Don't forget to say "Thanks Dougie!"

I don't live in the GTA and don't really follow Toronto Politics, but I hope this guy gets in just because of his name - Brad Bradford for Mayor!

Neither does Dutch, but that doesn't stop him from proclaiming himself, TERB's ''drive-by and say goodbye', Toronto professor laureate.

I hope Rob "don't waste time and money on street signs" Davis and Mark "make Toronto safe again" don't split the vote.

Brad Bradford said council recently spent (wasted) 90 minutes debating the names for the subway stations on SmartTrack. Why not just name them "A", "B", "C", etc.?

Anti-police candidate Knia Sight scares me. His idea of reducing/eliminating crime is to defund/disband the police. He probably has cornered all the criminal votes.

The problem with policing is that they are constrained from doing their jobs properly. Look what happened to crime in our schools when the school resource officers were eliminated.

Is anybody happy with the lack if safety on our streets, schools, TTC, etc?

If Toronto streets aren't safe, we can only blame the previous Chief of Police. Now, who was that?????
Let me guess, is it someone Darts would be happy with as mayor to keep doing the same old, same old as he did as the so-called chief of police?

Now that is we call employing the pretzel principle whereby someone supports the same person who f*cked things up before, being promoted to a higher office, where he would f*ck up the same things he f*cked up before in addition to f*cking up many, many more things.

Ding, ding, ding ..... Gagnant .....we have a winner!

The "war on the car" is being waged by car drivers against other car drivers. All battling each other for an ever-dwindling square millimeter of tar.
