Toronto has no sense - our pols start as left-leaning loonies and/or idiots
and go downhill from there.

We're the speed bump capital of the world and it's increasing exponentially
so as to force drivers onto the main roads where they can cause the traffic
jams they were escaping from in the first place which tie up transit, which
they'd really like the drivers to get out of their cars and use which will
happen when hell develops the big chill and couldn't be accommodated by TTC
in any event as they don't have enough vehicles and they won't order more
because the government outside of the city provides ZERO funding, the only
place in the world, I think, where that is true and just to make life easier
we were given 100% ownership of Go Transit commuter operations which
operates mainly OUTSIDE of Toronto and no funding to improve it and they
don't buy new buses because they don't want low-floors and don't have any
money anyway so we rebuild 25 year old fishbowls to creak on for another
three years and don't want low floor streetcars and if they did they
couldn't put in even center sections in the artics because they're already
underpowered and we're buildinmg a subway on Sheppard Ave that goes nowhere
and has 1/3 of stations closed off to save money on finishing them and wiull
open with one stgation closed altogether to save mopre money and it goes
nowhere and never will and where's the sense in any of this and is there a
period in here anywhere I don't think so end of rant
