NEW BROOM IN CLOSET...

Chong: Politics of transit in Toronto                          

                  
When it comes to public transit, Premier Kathleen Wynne, former premier Dalton McGuinty, Toronto Mayor Rob Ford and TTC Chair Karen Stintz have all been pilloried for their transgressions and flip flops.
But another problem, perpetrated on an unsuspecting public by former Toronto mayor David Miller, has not been adequately illuminated.
It set the stage for Ford’s election and explains in part his obsession with building “subways.” While it’s great fun to scorn Ford’s battle cry of “Subways! Subways! Subways!” as simplistic, his audiences (in Scarborough and across Toronto) know he means public transit should not take up existing road space.

About Me

My photo
I lean to the right but I still have a heart and if I have a mission it is to respond to attacks on people not available to protect themselves and to point out the hypocrisy of the left at every opportunity.MY MAJOR GOAL IS HIGHLIGHT THE HYPOCRISY AND STUPIDITY OF THE LEFTISTS ON TORONTO CITY COUNCIL. Last word: In the final analysis this blog is a relief valve for my rants/raves.
